EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white engraving from Cassell's Universal History, we are transported back to ancient Egypt where Anysis, the blind king, is depicted concealed in the marshes of the delta. Deposed by Sabacos, Anysis spent fifty years hiding in the marshland before making a triumphant return to power.
The image captures the essence of resilience and determination as Anysis navigates his way through the treacherous terrain, relying on his other senses to guide him. Despite his physical disability, he refuses to be defeated and ultimately regains his rightful place as ruler of Egypt.
The intricate details in the engraving bring this historical moment to life, showcasing not only Anysis' struggle but also highlighting the beauty of the Egyptian landscape with its majestic rivers and abundant wildlife. The presence of a crane bird adds an element of symbolism, representing grace and wisdom amidst adversity.
As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the enduring spirit of humanity and how even in our darkest moments, there is always hope for redemption. Anysis' story serves as a powerful reminder that true strength comes from within and that perseverance can lead us back to greatness.
