EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as Omar ibn al Khattab, also known as Omar I, the 2nd Caliph of Islam, personally takes possession of Jerusalem in 638. The image showcases the greatness and power of this remarkable conqueror who played a significant role in shaping the Islamic empire. Mounted on his majestic horse, surrounded by an army of devoted followers and camels carrying supplies, Omar exudes strength and determination. His presence commands attention as he overlooks the city with a sense of triumph. The Liebig chromolithography technique used to create this print adds vibrancy and depth to every detail, making it truly come alive. The composition not only highlights the military aspect but also emphasizes the religious significance behind this conquest. As a devout Muslim leader, Omar's capture of Jerusalem holds immense importance for both him and his followers. It symbolizes their faith's expansion into new territories while solidifying their control over holy sites. This photograph offers us a glimpse into history; it transports us back to that monumental moment when one man's ambition forever changed the course of events in Jerusalem. It serves as a testament to Omar ibn al Khattab's legacy as one of Islam's great conquerors and reminds us how art can preserve historical moments for generations to come.
