EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Alexandria, Egypt in the year 1841. The skilled artist Roger Young beautifully captures the essence of this ancient metropolis at twilight, as the sun gracefully sets over its historic landscape. The image transports us to a time when Greece and Egypt intertwined their cultures, resulting in a unique blend of Greek and Egyptian influences that can still be seen today. This fusion is evident in both the architectural structures dotting the urban skyline and the religious practices observed by its inhabitants. As we gaze upon this monochromatic masterpiece, we are reminded of Alexandria's significant role in Christianity and biblical history. The city served as a crucial hub for early Christian communities, fostering an environment where religion thrived alongside scientific advancements such as astronomy. The print not only showcases Alexandria's rich historical significance but also highlights its strategic location within Syria, Asia Minor, and the Holy Land. It serves as a testament to John Carne's publication "Syria, The Holy Land And Asia Minor" which aimed to document these remarkable regions during the 19th century. Through this mesmerizing artwork by Roger Young under William Henry Bartlett's guidance, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how religion, culture, science, and architecture converged harmoniously within this Middle Eastern country.
