EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to the ancient city of Alexandria, where scholars are seen examining the scrolls of the legendary Library of Alexandria. This library was renowned as the greatest collection of knowledge in the ancient world, housing a vast array of texts and manuscripts that were considered invaluable to scholars and historians.
Tragically, this magnificent repository of knowledge met a devastating fate when it was burnt in 47 BC and ultimately destroyed by Moslem general Amrou on 22 December 640 AD. The loss of such a significant cultural treasure reverberated throughout history, leaving an indelible mark on our understanding of the past.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our historical heritage and safeguarding our collective wisdom for future generations. The sight of these dedicated scholars poring over ancient scrolls serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of knowledge and the profound impact that libraries have had on shaping human civilization.
Through this photo print, we are granted a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history - one that reminds us to cherish and protect our cultural legacy with vigilance and reverence.
