EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 1660 edition of "Histoire de l Hommes plus illustres" by Thevet transports us back in time to the era of Timur (Tamerlane), one of history's most formidable conquerors. Timur, also known as Taimur, Timur Lenk, or Tamburlaine, was a powerful Mongolian leader who lived from 1336 to 1405. The portrait depicts Timur with an air of authority and wisdom befitting his status as a legendary figure. His piercing gaze and regal attire command attention, while his weathered face hints at the countless battles he fought and won during his reign. Created by an anonymous artist, this engraving showcases remarkable detail and skill. Every line etched into the medium captures the essence of Timur's character and presence. The use of color adds vibrancy to the image, bringing it to life despite its age. Now held in a private collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an important period in Asian history. It serves as a reminder of Timur's significant impact on Mongolia and beyond during the Middle Ages. Stefano Bianchetti has expertly preserved this historical artifact through photography, ensuring that future generations can appreciate its beauty and historical significance. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded of the enduring power that art holds in preserving our past for generations yet to come.
