EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Pergamos, 19th century" takes us on a journey to the ancient city of Pergamos in western Asia Minor (modern Turkey). Created by renowned artist John Cousen in collaboration with Thomas Allom, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historical location. Situated about 15 miles inland from the Aegean Sea, Pergamos was once a thriving city known for its impressive ruins. The image showcases the city's picturesque riverside setting, with a majestic river flowing through the landscape. The monochrome effect adds an air of mystery and timelessness to the scene. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to the 19th century when explorers like Cousen and Allom sought to document and preserve these ancient wonders. Their attention to detail is evident in every stroke of their engravings. The ruined structures depicted hint at Pergamos' rich history and architectural grandeur that once stood proudly within its walls. This print serves as a testament to both the artistic talent of John Cousen and Thomas Allom's dedication to capturing significant geographical features for future generations. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a history buff, this remarkable piece offers a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through artistry. It invites us to reflect on our connection with past civilizations while appreciating their lasting impact on our present-day world.
