EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tomb of the Maccabees: A Journey Through Time and History This exquisitely detailed handcoloured copperplate engraving by Giovanni Antonio Sasso, taken from Giulio Ferrario's Il Costume Antico e Moderno, offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Middle East during the 1800s. The image depicts the ruins of the Tomb of the Maccabees, located in Jerusalem. The Maccabees were a Jewish dynasty that led the successful revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the second century BCE, resulting in the re-establishment of the Jewish kingdom in Judea. The tomb, with its distinctive hexagonal shape, is set against the backdrop of the ancient city of Jerusalem. The court surrounding the tomb is adorned with Roman-influenced architecture, reflecting the region's complex history. In the distance, one can see the ruins of the Temple, a reminder of the sacred significance of this site to the Jewish people. The engraving also reveals the stunning landscape of the region, with the Beqaa Valley and the Lebanon mountains visible in the background. However, there seems to be a mistake in the image, as the Arco di Laodicea, an ancient Roman arch, appears to be incorrectly placed next to the tomb. Despite this error, the image remains an intriguing snapshot of the past, showcasing the blend of cultures and historical influences that characterized the region during this period. This beautiful illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill of Giovanni Antonio Sasso but also offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical fashion and customs of the peoples of the world during the 19th century.
