EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Assyrian relief taken from Ninevah, featuring the illustrious King Assurbanipal on a grand carriage. Preserved within the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this ancient artwork offers a glimpse into the rich history of Mesopotamian/Babylonian/Assyrian civilization. Dating back to 668-631 BC, this stone tablet is a remarkable example of low relief or bas-relief artistry. The intricate details and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring, depicting a historical procession scene with individuals adorned in traditional clothing and costumes. Both masculine and feminine figures can be seen, providing insight into the fashion and attire of that era. The photograph itself was captured by Alinari during the early 20th century (1920-30 ca. ), preserving not only the beauty of this masterpiece but also its historical significance. It transports us back in time to witness an ancient civilization's method of transportation - as we see King Assurbanipal being carried on his regal hearse along a road. One notable element depicted in this image is an umbrella held above King Assurbanipal's head, symbolizing his status as part of nobility. This object further emphasizes the opulence and grandeur associated with rulers during that period. Through this photograph print from Alinari Fratelli, viewers are granted access to explore Asia's ancient civilizations while delving into their fascinating pasts. It serves as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity throughout history while offering invaluable insights into our collective heritage.
