EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient city of Babylon, showcasing its most iconic landmarks - the Hanging Gardens and the Temple of Jupiter Belus. The image, titled "View of Ancient Babylon showing the Hanging Gardens and the Temple of Jupiter Belus" is a reproduction from Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach's renowned architectural treatise, "Entwurf einer historischen Architektur". Engraved by Johann Adam Delsenbach in 1721 and later colorized, this stunning piece captures the grandeur and magnificence of these wonders. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded of their inclusion among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The intricate details depicted in this print allow us to marvel at Babylon's architectural prowess. From terraced gardens that seem to defy gravity to an imposing temple dedicated to Jupiter Belus, every element showcases human ingenuity and artistic mastery. The view extends beyond these remarkable structures; it encompasses a bustling cityscape with a river flowing nearby - possibly representing the mighty Euphrates River. We can also spot other notable features such as a pyramid-like structure, bridges connecting different parts of Babylon, and even what appears to be Ninus' Tomb. As we contemplate this mesmerizing artwork from our private collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a testament to humanity's ability to create awe-inspiring monuments that withstand both time and distance.
