EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us to the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria. This exquisite engraving, created by Carl Haag in 1862, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry and vibrant traditions of this historical region. In this scene, we witness a group of Arabs bidding farewell as they embark on an arduous journey through the vast desert. Clad in traditional attire, their flowing garments billow in the wind as they mount majestic camels – symbols of resilience and endurance. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life; from the intricate patterns adorning their clothing to the graceful postures of both humans and animals alike.

As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time - imagining ourselves amidst these travelers setting off into unknown lands. We can almost feel the scorching sun on our skin and hear whispers carried by desert winds. This print serves as a testament to Haag's artistic prowess and his ability to capture not only physical landscapes but also evoke emotions within its viewers. It invites us to appreciate both the beauty and challenges faced by those who traversed these ancient paths.
