EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1895, capturing a significant moment in history. The image showcases the Tower from which St Paul descended in a basket, located in Damascus, Ottoman Syria. According to legend, this tower is where the early Christian saint Paul made his daring escape by being lowered down in a basket from its walls. The architectural beauty of the tower stands tall against the backdrop of the cityscape. Its ancient charm transports us to a time long gone by, evoking a sense of wonder and awe. The monochrome tones add depth and character to this archaeological site, emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the rich religious heritage that permeates through Damascus. This legendary event has been passed down through generations as an emblematic tale of faith and courage. The print itself is part of "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago" published by George Newnes Ltd in London during that era. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation for those seeking insight into 19th-century Ottoman Empire's landscapes.
