EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Occupation of Cyprus (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the historical events that unfolded during that time. The image showcases a ruined monastery in Cerinia, amidst the occupation of Cyprus. The engraving beautifully captures the topography of this ancient land, with an old Venetian fort standing tall in the background. As we delve deeper into this visual narrative, our eyes are drawn to Nicosia's bustling road and coastal scenery. The coastline stretches out before us, meeting the vast expanse of sea with its maritime allure. In this moment frozen in time, HMS Bittern gracefully sails along Lapais' coast while adding a touch of grandeur to the scene. While admiring this print, one cannot help but ponder on the significance of places of worship scattered throughout Cyprus. These sacred sites hold stories untold and bear witness to centuries-old traditions and beliefs. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate today. As we gaze upon it now, we are transported back in time - witnessing both beauty and turmoil intertwined within every brushstroke.
