This photo print, titled "Tiglath-Pileser I directed by Ninib" transports us back to the ancient world of Mesopotamia. Created in 1916 by artist Evelyn Paul, this illustration is a part of the renowned book "Myths and Legends of Babylonia and Assyria" by Lewis Spence. The artwork beautifully depicts Tiglath-Pileser I, the mighty King of Assyria from 1114 until 1076 BC, being guided by Ninib, the war-god and deity associated with the Sun and Moon. Intricately colored and meticulously detailed, this image showcases Tiglath-Pileser I on his chariot accompanied by powerful horses. Armed with a bow and arrow, he embodies strength and prowess as he embarks on a hunting expedition. The presence of lions symbolizes his bravery in facing formidable challenges.
