EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria during the 3rd century. Created by Herbert Gustave Schmalz, this illustration captures a poignant moment in history. The image depicts Queen Zenobia, exiled monarch of Palmyra, standing on a grand staircase overlooking her beloved city for the last time. Dressed in regal attire, she gazes out with a mix of sorrow and determination on her face. The detailed illustration brings to life the architectural beauty of Palmyra with its towering columns and intricate carvings. Schmalz skillfully portrays Zenobia as a strong and resilient female leader amidst turbulent times. Her exile from power is evident through her somber expression, yet there is an air of defiance about her as well. This portrayal resonates with viewers even today, highlighting themes of strength and resilience in the face of adversity. The black and white aesthetic adds depth to this historical scene, emphasizing both the grandeur and melancholy surrounding Zenobia's last moments in Palmyra. Through this powerful visual narrative, Schmalz invites us to reflect upon the complexities of power dynamics throughout history while paying homage to an extraordinary woman who defied societal norms. This iconic piece from "Pictures of the Year- VII" serves as a testament to Schmalz's artistic prowess and his ability to capture
