EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and brutal scene of the "Slaughter of the Syrians" as depicted in an engraving by Gustave Dore. The illustration, published in "Bible or Books of New Testament and Old Testament" in 1875, showcases a significant event from Kings 20. In this powerful image, we witness the Israelites engaged in a fierce battle against their Syrian adversaries. With swords raised high and determination etched on their faces, mature men form a formidable group ready to defend their beliefs. This religious illustration transports us back to an era where conflicts were settled through warfare. The obsolete nature of this engraved image serves as a reminder of how far humanity has come since those ancient times. The horse-drawn carts and lances used by both sides highlight the historical context surrounding this religious event. Gustave Dore's attention to detail is evident throughout the artwork - from the intricate robes worn by warriors to every spear thrust into enemy lines. The artist's expertise brings history alive within this frame. While it may be unsettling for some viewers due to its depiction of dead bodies strewn across the battlefield, it serves as a testament to our collective past filled with wars and struggles for power. This print offers not only an artistic representation but also invites contemplation about religion, conflict, judgment, and human history itself. It stands as a poignant reminder that peace should always prevail over violence.
