EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th-century print captures a mesmerizing view of the Obelisk of Thutmosis III as seen from the ancient walls of Alexandria, Egypt. Created by Jan van Call, this watercolor and pen and ink drawing beautifully showcases the architectural marvels and natural beauty that adorned this historical city. The composition is framed by delicate lines in graphite and brown ink along the upper, lower, left, and right edges, enhancing the circular shape of the artwork. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, from the intricate rendering of palm trees to the precise depiction of people strolling along the walls. The vibrant colors bring life to this scene; warm hues highlight both man-made structures and lush vegetation. The obelisk itself stands tall at its center, a testament to ancient Egyptian craftsmanship. Its grandeur contrasts with the peaceful vista beyond – an expansive landscape stretching towards Constantinople (now Istanbul), Turkey. Jan van Call's mastery lies not only in his technical skill but also in his ability to transport viewers through time. This artwork invites us to imagine ourselves standing on those very walls centuries ago, taking in breathtaking views that have captivated countless generations before us. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their heritage collection, this print serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with history and our desire to preserve it for future generations.
