EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Dr. Schliemann's groundbreaking excavations in the Troad, an ancient region in Turkey. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, captures the essence of this archaeological endeavor. The image transports us to a time when Dr. Heinrich Schliemann embarked on his quest to uncover the secrets of Troy and its legendary history. We are presented with a mesmerizing view of Anatolia, where we can witness the entrance and ancient Cyclopean walls of Gergis. These imposing structures hint at the grandeur that once existed within these historical grounds. As our eyes wander through this visual narrative, we encounter various elements that speak volumes about both Turkish culture and European influence during that era. From the Scaean Gate to the Palace of Priam, every detail tells a story of past civilizations and their architectural marvels. The photograph also offers glimpses into topography and archaeology as it reveals Bournabashi and Hissarlik - two significant locations associated with Dr. Schliemann's discoveries. With its rich historical context spanning across Europe and Middle Eastern influences, this print from Bridgeman Images serves as a testament to human curiosity and determination in unraveling our collective heritage. It invites viewers to delve into a world long gone but forever preserved through meticulous excavation efforts like those undertaken by Dr. Schliemann himself.
