EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Baalbek, Lebanon in 1858. Created by the talented artist Edward Lear, this artwork combines watercolour and pen with black ink to bring out the intricate details of this Middle Eastern landscape. The panoramic view captures the essence of rural life in Lebanon during that era. The vast countryside stretches as far as the eye can see, depicting a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Lear's skillful use of graphite indications adds depth and texture to his creation, making it come alive. Baalbek itself stands proudly in the center of the composition. Its ancient ruins are beautifully preserved, showcasing its rich history and cultural significance. The Lebanese countryside surrounding Baalbek is lush and vibrant, reflecting nature's bounty. Lear's painting serves as a study or sketch of this magnificent location, capturing its essence for posterity. It allows us to travel back in time and experience Lebanon's natural beauty through his artistic lens. Now housed at Ashmolean Museum at University of Oxford in the UK, this artwork is an important part of their collection. As we admire Lear's masterpiece today, we are reminded not only of his talent but also how art has the power to transport us across time and space.
