EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Nomads from Asia coming into Egypt to solicit an asylum from the governor of a province" transports us back in time to ancient Egypt. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print captures a significant moment in history. Intriguingly, it depicts a group of nomads hailing from Asia seeking refuge and protection within the borders of Egypt. As they approach the governor of a province, their weariness and desperation are palpable. The engraving beautifully portrays their journey across vast landscapes and treacherous terrains to reach this pivotal destination. The scene is set against the backdrop of an awe-inspiring Egyptian landscape with towering pyramids and majestic temples. This visual spectacle serves as a reminder of Egypt's grandeur during its golden age under Pharaoh Rameses The Great. The artwork was originally commissioned as an illustration for F De Lanoye's book "Rameses The Great or Egypt 3300 Years Ago". It offers viewers a glimpse into daily life during that era while shedding light on the complex relationships between different cultures. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but marvel at how art has preserved these historical moments for future generations. Through engravings like this one, we are transported back in time to witness encounters between diverse civilizations and appreciate their struggles and triumphs alike.
