EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, "The Death of Sardanapalus" we are transported back to the 19th century, where history and beauty intertwine. The European School masterfully captures the essence of mortality and decadence in this haunting image. Sardanapalus, a legendary Assyrian king known for his indulgent lifestyle, lies lifeless on an opulent bed surrounded by his treasures. The scene is rich with symbolism; death looms over him as a reminder of our fleeting existence. Yet, amidst the tragedy, there is also a hint of allure. This print was originally created as an illustration for "The Book of Perfumes" by Eugene Rimmel in 1865. It serves as a testament to the power that scent holds over our senses and emotions. Perfume has long been associated with beauty care and enhancing one's allure – even in death. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of Sardanapalus' demise but also of the fragility and transience of life itself. It prompts us to reflect on our own mortality while appreciating the artistry behind perfumed beauty products throughout history. Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into historical moments like these through their extensive collection. This particular print invites us to explore both visual aesthetics and olfactory sensations simultaneously – reminding us that art can transcend time and engage all our senses.
