EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing view of the Troy excavations as seen from the West. Created by Heinrich Schliemann, a renowned German archaeologist, this pen and ink drawing with wash brings to life the ancient ruins of Troy in exquisite detail. The image transports us back in time to an archaeological expedition at Hissarlik, where Schliemann dedicated his life to uncovering the secrets buried beneath this historic site. With meticulous precision, he depicts the excavation process that reveals layers upon layers of history on this hillside. As our eyes wander across the print, we are drawn towards the majestic mountaintop overlooking a vast plain. The rugged terrain tells tales of battles fought and civilizations long gone. Each stroke of Schliemann's pen unveils fragments of an ancient world waiting to be discovered. This artwork not only showcases Schliemann's artistic talent but also serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication towards unraveling historical mysteries. It stands as a reminder that through archaeological digs like these, we gain invaluable insights into our past and preserve our cultural heritage for generations to come. Displayed proudly in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this print is more than just an artistic masterpiece; it is a window into humanity's collective memory and an invitation for us all to explore and appreciate our rich archaeological heritage.
