EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph captures a momentous scene from ancient Assyrian history. The print depicts an Ancient Assyrian king making his grand entrance into his palace, accompanied by a eunuch and his vizier. As the king approaches, he is warmly received by musicians who fill the air with melodious tunes. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable, showcasing the opulent interior of the palace adorned with intricate wall paintings and decorative art pieces. Statues and lamassu, winged bulls that symbolize protection and deity, stand as guardians throughout the space. The costumes worn by each figure are meticulously depicted, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Assyria. Every element in this composition speaks volumes about the power and grandeur associated with royalty during that era. This stunning illustration was created for an edition of the Harmsworth History of the World around 1910. It provides us with a glimpse into one of humanity's most fascinating civilizations - their customs, beliefs, and artistic achievements. As we admire this piece today, it serves as a reminder of our connection to our ancient past and how art can transport us through time. This print not only showcases historical significance but also highlights Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
