EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Assyrian heads, from ancient marbles" takes us back to the 19th century. The image showcases a collection of intricately carved Assyrian heads, originating from ancient marbles. These remarkable artifacts are depicted with great attention to detail, highlighting the craftsmanship of their creators. The engraving is part of a private collection and was featured in the book "The Land of the Bible, Its Sacred Heroes and Wonderful Story" published by Ward Lock around 1880. It serves as an illustration for this biblical account, offering readers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the Middle East. Intriguingly arranged on display or perhaps awaiting restoration, these Assyrian heads stand as silent witnesses to a bygone era. Their stoic expressions evoke curiosity about the stories they could tell if only given voice. With its play on light and shadows, this monochromatic print captures both the beauty and mystery surrounding these ancient relics. As we ponder upon their significance in our modern world, it becomes apparent that they not only represent historical artifacts but also serve as reminders of humanity's enduring fascination with artistry and storytelling. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece through Fine Art Finder platform for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its historical value.
