EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Relics from the Buried City of Brahmunabad, in Sind" takes us on a journey back to the 19th century. The image showcases a collection of ancient artifacts that were discovered in the buried city of Brahmunabad, located in present-day Sindh, Pakistan. The intricate details captured by the English School artist transport us to an era long gone. A chess board with its delicate pieces stands as a testament to the intellectual pursuits enjoyed by inhabitants of this lost civilization. Fragments of pottery and dice hint at their daily lives and leisure activities. As we gaze upon these relics, we can almost hear whispers from centuries past. The ruins tell stories of bustling markets and grand palaces that once graced this now-forgotten city. Mansura and Brahmanabad are mentioned alongside Sind as reminders of their historical significance. Archaeology enthusiasts will find themselves drawn into this mesmerizing scene, contemplating the mysteries hidden within each artifact. This print originally appeared in The Illustrated London News in February 1857, offering readers a glimpse into distant lands and cultures. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we have access to this remarkable piece today. It serves as a reminder that even though time may bury civilizations beneath layers of earth, their legacy endures through art and archaeological discoveries like those depicted here.
