EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the renowned ancient Chinese philosopher, Confucius. Created by a German School in the 19th century, this print showcases the wisdom and influence of one of history's greatest thinkers. Confucius, also known as Kong Qiu, lived during the 5th and 6th centuries BC and left an indelible mark on Chinese culture. Dressed in traditional robes that befit his status as both a politician and literary figure, he exudes an air of authority and intellect. As a teacher and philosopher, Confucius emphasized moral values such as respect for elders, loyalty to family, and social harmony. His teachings laid the foundation for Confucianism - a philosophy that has shaped Asian societies for centuries. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight not only Confucius' physical appearance but also his profound impact on Chinese history. The image is taken from Julius Hart's "Geschichte der Weltlitteratur" published around 1894. With its digitally cleaned image quality, this print allows us to appreciate the depth of knowledge embodied by Confucius while offering a glimpse into ancient China's rich cultural heritage. This remarkable artwork serves as a reminder of how influential individuals like Confucius continue to inspire generations through their ideas long after they have departed from this world.
