EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, dated 25 June 1864, captures the awe-inspiring interior of Sir John Soane's Museum's Sarcophagus Room in Lincoln's Inn Fields, London. The room, filled with ancient Egyptian and Roman sculptures and sarcophagi, was a popular attraction for Victorian visitors seeking a glimpse into the mysteries of the past. In the image, several visitors, dressed in the fashion of the time, are shown admiring the intricately decorated sarcophagi and sculptures that fill the room. The dimly lit space, with its high ceilings and ornate columns, adds to the sense of grandeur and importance of the ancient objects on display. Sir John Soane (1753-1837) was a renowned architect and collector, who amassed an impressive collection of antiquities during his travels in Europe and the Middle East. He opened his home to the public as a museum in 1833, and the Sarcophagus Room was one of its most famous exhibits. The importance of the Sarcophagus Room can be seen in the attention given to it in this engraving. The image not only showcases the ancient objects but also the experience of visiting the museum, with visitors taking in the sights and sounds of the space, adding to the overall sense of wonder and discovery. This engraving is a testament to the enduring appeal of Sir John Soane's Museum and the Sarcophagus Room, which continues to draw visitors from around the world today, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the importance of preserving history for future generations.
