EDITORS COMMENTS
This work of art, titled "The Cedars of Lebanon," was created by the renowned British artist Edward Lear in the year 1858. The image is a graphite, watercolor with pen and brown ink drawing on ivory wove paper, showcasing Lear's exceptional skill and mastery of various artistic mediums. The drawing is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, a prestigious art museum and cultural institution in the United States. The Cedars of Lebanon, depicted in this drawing, are a significant part of the natural and cultural heritage of Lebanon and the Middle East. These ancient cedar trees, scientifically known as Cedrus libani, have been celebrated for their beauty and symbolic significance for thousands of years. In this drawing, Lear captures the majesty and grandeur of these trees, their towering trunks reaching towards the sky, their branches lush and green, and their roots deeply entrenched in the earth. The drawing transports us back to the 19th century, a time when exploration and discovery were at the forefront of human curiosity. Lear, a prolific artist, travel writer, and poet, was known for his vivid and detailed depictions of the natural world, and "The Cedars of Lebanon" is a testament to his artistic vision and talent. The drawing invites us to reflect on the rich history and cultural significance of these ancient trees, and to appreciate the beauty and wonder of the natural world around us.
