EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Further Discoveries at Cuma and Canosa" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by an English School artist. The image transports us to a world of archaeological wonders in Italy, specifically Cuma and Canosa. Intriguingly, the picture captures the interior of a glass vessel with a pump surrounded by remnants from a Greek tomb. The remains tell stories of ancient civilizations that once thrived in this region. As we delve deeper into the details, we can spot various artifacts such as a Phoenician vase and Roman building ruins. The scene depicted here is reminiscent of London's Illustrated London News publication from April 29th, 1854. It highlights significant discoveries made during excavations in Cuma and Canosa. The photograph also draws attention to an explosive element - a bomb found amidst these historical treasures. This unexpected find adds another layer of intrigue to the narrative, reminding us that history often holds surprises waiting to be unearthed. As our eyes wander across this print, we are reminded of Europe's rich cultural heritage represented by Italian archaeology. The presence of the Italian flag subtly reminds us of unity within diversity as part of the European Union.
