EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pompey in the Temple of Jerusalem, 1890" takes us back to ancient times, capturing a significant moment in history. The image showcases the exterior of the Temple of Jerusalem during the first century BC, with Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, also known as Pompey the Great, standing amidst its grandeur. The engraving from Edmund Ollier's book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History Vol. II - Rome" provides a glimpse into this historic event that unfolded centuries ago. As a renowned military general and statesman from ancient Rome, Pompey's presence in Jerusalem holds great political significance. Surrounded by hills and located within Judea (now modern-day Israel), this temple area was considered sacred ground for religious offerings and worship. In this scene, we witness an offering table adorned with burners where people would present their tributes. Despite being created in the 19th century by an unknown artist, this monochrome illustration beautifully captures the essence of that era. It allows us to reflect on both historical events and artistic representations prevalent at that time. As we delve into this mesmerizing print from Heritage Images' collection curated by The Print Collector, it serves as a reminder of how art can transport us through time and space. This particular piece invites viewers to explore ancient civilizations while appreciating their cultural heritage and rich historical tapestry.
