EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable sculpture of Nisroch, the Assyrian god, dating back to the mid-19th century. Nisroch is depicted as an eagle-winged deity carrying a pine cone, symbolizing regeneration. The ancient kingdom of Assyria was located in modern-day Iraq, and this relief was excavated at Nimrud by Henry Layard starting in 1845. The intricate details of this woodcut sculpture are evident in the feathers of the winged bird and its powerful beak. The monochrome presentation adds to its timeless appeal, highlighting the significance of this religious artwork from ancient times. Nisroch holds great importance in Assyrian mythology as a deity associated with rejuvenation and rebirth. This print showcases not only the artistic prowess but also provides insight into the religious beliefs prevalent during that era. Joseph Bonomi II and Sir Austen Henry Layard played crucial roles in unearthing such historical treasures through their archaeological endeavors. Their efforts have allowed us to appreciate these ancient artifacts today. This image serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and offers glimpses into civilizations long gone. It stands as a testament to human creativity, spirituality, and our eternal quest for understanding our origins.
