EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate architectural drawing of the Plan of Monastery of St. Anthony, created by Mark Sykes in 1915. The map depicts the Coptic Orthodox Monastery of Saint Anthony, nestled in the Eastern Desert of Egypt. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece, they are transported back in time to witness the oldest monastery in existence. Lt. -Col. Sir Mark Sykes, a renowned historian and author, beautifully captures the essence of this sacred place in his book "The Caliphs Last Heritage, a short history of the Turkish Empire". His attention to detail is evident as he meticulously illustrates every aspect of this magnificent structure. The image not only portrays an architectural marvel but also represents centuries-old Christian heritage and spirituality. The Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria finds its roots within these ancient walls. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, we are reminded that it was during Ottoman rule that Lt. -Col. Sir Mark Sykes embarked on his journey to document such historical treasures across the Middle East. This print serves as a testament to our rich religious past and invites us to explore further into our shared human history. It transports us beyond borders and time itself while honoring Lt. -Col. Sir Mark Sykes' dedication to preserving cultural heritage through his artistry and writings.
