EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Baghdad in the Days of Mansur, 1915" takes us back to the 8th century AD, offering a mesmerizing aerial view of the walled city of Baghdad. Created by Edmund Sandars, this artwork beautifully depicts how the ancient city might have appeared during that era. The painting is part of Lt. -Col. Sir Mark Sykes' book "The Caliphs Last Heritage, a short history of the Turkish Empire" published by Macmillan & Co in London. In this image, we witness Al Mansour, one of Baghdad's nine administrative districts today but named after Abu Ja far al-Mansur (714-775 AD), who was not only the second Abbasid Caliph but also the founder of Baghdad itself. The circular shape and imposing walls surrounding the city are prominent features captured in this piece. Sandars' use of color brings life to this historical portrayal as we explore an era rich with culture and heritage. From its location along the River Tigris to its significance as a major center within Asia's fertile crescent region, Baghdad has always held great importance throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork by Edmund Sandars, we are transported back centuries ago to witness firsthand the grandeur and magnificence that once defined one of Iraq's most iconic cities – Baghdad in its days under Mansur's rule.
