EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Mosul, located on the banks of the mighty Tigris River in Iraq. The intricate drawing by Eugene Flandin, featured in "Le tour du monde" edited by Edouard Charton in 1863, beautifully illustrates Vivian de Saint Martin's expedition to Nineveh from 1844 to 1860. The image showcases a panoramic view of Mosul, capturing its architectural marvels and vibrant atmosphere. The meticulous details reveal the laborious efforts put into constructing bridges that span across the river, connecting different parts of this ancient city. It is evident that Flandin was not only an artist but also a keen observer as he skillfully captures every aspect of life within this Middle Eastern metropolis. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when Iraq was thriving with cultural diversity and architectural wonders. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage that exists within these lands. Leonard de Selva has expertly preserved this engraving from his private collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate. Through his lens, we can admire Flandin's remarkable talent while immersing ourselves in the beauty and grandeur of Mosul during an era long gone by.
