Chamber in the house of a Mirza, in the Valley of Baidar - sketched by Willibald Richter, 1856. '...a pleasant glimpse into the simple everyday life of the Tartar inhabitants of the Crimea....The stranger finds among them a touching hospitality, simple and unaffected virtues that deeply affect him. The best room, the most succulent viands, everything the Tartar has to offer is laid before his guest with an eagerness that stifles even the idea of refusing them; and, indeed, it would be a mortal insult if you should wish to remunerate his benevolent reception by aught save an expressive grasp of the hand'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
