EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to 1936, capturing a glimpse of history at Tel Deweir in Lachish, Israel. The image showcases the inner gateway within the southwest bastion of this ancient site. The focus is on the original threshold and gate jambs, which stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by. One stone of a later sill, dating back to the Persian period, can be seen positioned above them. It's fascinating how different architectural elements from various eras coexist within this gateway. Notably, drainage trenches are visible running towards the stone sill, indicating careful attention given to managing water flow during that time. This detail adds depth and complexity to our understanding of the engineering prowess exhibited by those who built and maintained this structure. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back in time and reminded of humanity's enduring desire for protection and fortification. The intricate details preserved in this image allow us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in constructing such structures and their historical significance. Liszt Collection has once again provided us with an invaluable window into our past through their exceptional curation of historical photographs like this one from Tel Deweir at Lachish.
