EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the magnificent courtyard of Heliopolis, or the Temple of Baalbek, located in the Beqaa Valley of Lebanon. The temple, dedicated to the Phoenician god Baal, is renowned for its colossal columns and intricate architectural design. At the center of the image, we see the Hexagonal Court, surrounded by a series of columns, each adorned with intricate carvings and capitals. The courtyard is filled with people engaged in various rituals and offerings to the gods. In the foreground, we see a king, possibly King Priam of Troy, accompanied by his wife Hecuba and their son, Prince Hector, bidding farewell to Queen Andromache and their son Astyanax. The scene is reminiscent of the legendary story of the Trojan War, where Paris of Troy abducted Helen, leading to the war between Troy and Greece. Cassandra, the prophetess, is also depicted in the crowd, her tragic fate of being cursed with the ability to see the future but not being believed. This stunning illustration is from Giulio Ferrario's Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World, published in Florence in 1847. The work, produced by the renowned Italian engravers Giovanni Antonio Sasso and Angelo Monticelli, showcases the historical fashion and cultural traditions of various civilizations throughout history. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the grandeur and splendor of ancient civilizations.
