EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sarcophagi and Sepulchres at the Head of the Harbour at Cacamo" takes us on a journey to the Ottoman Empire in the early 19th century. The image, captured by Luigi Mayer and published by Robert Bowyer, showcases an exquisite aquatint that transports us to a landscape filled with history and mystery. In this scene, we find ourselves standing amidst a funerary cemetery, surrounded by ancient ruins and sepulchres. The head of the harbor at Cacamo provides a stunning backdrop for these impressive structures. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to an intrigued visitor who stands before one of the magnificent sarcophagi. The atmosphere is both serene and haunting as we witness nature slowly reclaiming these once grand tombs. The crumbling walls tell stories of lives long gone but not forgotten. A turbaned figure passes through this churchyard-like graveyard, adding an air of authenticity to this historical moment frozen in time. This print invites us to reflect on mortality while also marveling at the beauty found within decay. It serves as a reminder that even in death, there is artistry worth preserving. With its rich details and evocative composition, it captivates viewers with its timeless allure. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today, this remarkable piece allows us to travel back centuries ago and immerse ourselves in another world – one where history whispers through every stone and where beauty
