EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to the ancient city of Byblos, also known as Jebeil, located in modern-day Lebanon. The image showcases an extraordinary artifact that was unearthed during excavations - the majestic Sceptre of the King. Crafted with meticulous detail and precision, this bronze sceptre exudes a sense of regality and power. The composition is further enhanced by the inclusion of a mirror alongside the sceptre, adding an intriguing element to this archaeological discovery. This juxtaposition hints at both practical and symbolic purposes for these objects within ancient society. Dating back to 1936, when Lebanon's capital Beirut was still undergoing significant transformations, this photograph captures a moment frozen in time. It serves as a testament to our collective fascination with history and archaeology - offering glimpses into civilizations long gone. Through its careful preservation by the Liszt Collection, we are given access to rare artifacts like this one that might otherwise remain hidden from public view. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of humanity's enduring quest for knowledge about our past and how it shapes our present understanding. In appreciating such treasures from distant eras and faraway lands like Byblos Jebeil in Lebanon, we cultivate a deeper appreciation for cultural heritage while simultaneously igniting curiosity about what else lies buried beneath layers of time waiting patiently to be discovered.
