EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Treasure Of Priam" takes us back to the year 1874 when renowned archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann made a groundbreaking discovery at Hisarlik. The image showcases a collection of objects, including crockery and ancient artifacts, mistakenly identified as belonging to Priam King of Troy. Heinrich Schliemann's excavation efforts had initially led him to believe that these treasures were linked to the legendary city of Troy mentioned in Homer's Iliad. However, subsequent research revealed that they actually originated from an earlier pre-Homeric site. This revelation adds another layer of intrigue and significance to this remarkable photograph. Published originally in the Illustrated London News in 1874, this portrait-style composition by Rischgitz captures the essence of these historical findings with its striking monochromatic tones. Each object within the frame tells a story of its own, whispering tales from civilizations long gone. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where exploration and curiosity fueled mankind's quest for knowledge about our past. It serves as a reminder that even well-intentioned discoveries can sometimes lead us down unexpected paths.
