EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Engraved Rocks in the Ouadi Mokattah, Laborde" transports us to a time long ago. The image, captured by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a collection of ancient rocks adorned with intricate engravings. These rocks hold secrets from biblical times and serve as a testament to human creativity and devotion. The engraving depicts scenes from the Bible, meticulously etched into the rock using an iron pen and lead. Each stroke tells a story - stories that have stood the test of time and are now forever preserved within these stones. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost feel the weight of history pressing down on us. The Ouadi Mokattah serves as both a canvas and sanctuary for these engraved rocks. Nestled amidst rugged landscapes, they stand as silent witnesses to generations past who sought solace or inspiration within their presence. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and detail. It was originally created as an illustration for The Illustrated Family Bible with notes by John Kitto in 1870. As we contemplate this image, let us marvel at how artistry intertwines with spirituality across centuries. These engraved rocks remind us that even in our modern world, there is still something profound about connecting with ancient traditions and finding meaning etched into stone.
