EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Angkor Vat, specifically highlighting the Tour d'angle du second étage (second-floor corner tower). Created by the French School in the 19th century, this engraving is now part of a private collection. It was originally featured as an illustration for L'Habitation Humaine, a publication by Charles Garnier and A. Ammann in 1892. Angkor Vat, located in Cambodia's lush landscapes, stands as a testament to both antiquity and religious significance. This UNESCO World Heritage Site holds immense cultural value and represents the rich history of Buddhism and Hinduism in Southeast Asia. The image captures row housing or habitations surrounding the temple complex, providing insight into how people lived during that era. The dilapidated state of some structures adds an element of ruination to this scene. As we delve into this mesmerizing engraving, it becomes evident that every intricate detail has been carefully etched to depict not only architectural grandeur but also spiritual devotion. The Hindu pantheon comes alive through these engravings, showcasing its influence on daily life at that time. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from the late 19th century, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. Through their work, they continue to bring art enthusiasts closer to our shared heritage while honoring cultural diversity around the world.
