EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, showcasing the majestic Bab Sharqi, also known as The Eastern Gate, located in Damascus, Syria. Published around 1890 as part of the "Pictures From Bible Lands" collection by Ken Welsh, this image offers a glimpse into the ancient city's rich history and biblical significance. Bab Sharqi stands tall and proud amidst its surroundings, with intricate architectural details that speak volumes about the craftsmanship of that era. This gate was one of eight entrances to Damascus and held great cultural and religious importance. Often referred to as "Gate of the Sun" it served as a passage for pilgrims traveling through Syria on their way to Mecca. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this historical landmark, transporting viewers back in time when bustling markets filled its streets and camel caravans passed through its gates. It serves as a reminder of how cities like Damascus have stood strong throughout centuries, witnessing countless stories unfold within their walls. Ken Welsh's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also the spiritual significance tied to this ancient gate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from "Pictures From Bible Lands" we are reminded of our connection to history and inspired by these timeless landmarks that continue to leave an indelible mark on our world today.
