EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "The Battle of Carchemish" depicts a historical clash that took place in 605 BC between the allied armies of Egypt and Assyria against Babylonia. The artwork, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, is part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. In this scene, we witness a fierce confrontation on the battlefield. The walls surrounding them serve as a backdrop to the intense fighting taking place. Horses gallop through the chaos while soldiers armed with weapons engage in combat. This depiction offers us a glimpse into the ancient world where powerful empires clashed for dominance along the Euphrates River. The presence of troops from different nations - Babylonians, Egyptians, and Assyrians - highlights the significance of this battle in shaping history. Led by Nebuchadnezzar II, these forces fought relentlessly against each other with determination and courage. This engraving was originally featured in Cassell's Illustrated Universal History and showcases meticulous attention to detail. It captures not only the physicality but also conveys emotions such as fear, bravery, and desperation amidst war. As we gaze upon this historic artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of humanity's enduring struggle for power throughout time.
