EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Egypt, where we witness the audacious act of tomb robbery. The illustration, skillfully created by Constance N Baikie and featured in James Baikie's book "The Ancient East And Its Story" transports us to a world filled with mystery and intrigue. In this horizontal composition, we find ourselves amidst the chaos as plunderers ransack the sacred tomb of a pharaoh from Thebes. With vibrant colors that bring life to every detail, Baikie's work captures our attention and immerses us in this forbidden act. The Egyptian mythology is palpable in this scene; the presence of Amon Ra, the sun god and one of Egypt's most revered deities, adds an air of divine consequence to these robbers' actions. As they hastily gather their ill-gotten treasures under his watchful eye, one can't help but feel a mix of awe and trepidation. Baikie masterfully portrays not only the physicality but also the religious significance behind tomb robbery during ancient times. This illustration serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal fascination with history and its willingness to go great lengths for wealth or knowledge. Ken Welsh has expertly captured this thought-provoking image through his lens, allowing viewers today to appreciate both its artistic value and historical context.
