EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the momentous Kassite invasion of Babylonia in the 18th century BC, as depicted in Hutchinson's History of the Nations. The image transports us back to a time when civilizations clashed and people witnessed an astonishing sight for the first time. In this historical scene, we witness the astonishment of villagers as they lay eyes on horses for the very first time. These majestic creatures were not only a symbol of power and strength but also held great significance to the invading Kassites who worshipped them. The introduction of horses into Babylonia marked a significant turning point in its history. The composition beautifully portrays both awe and trepidation on the faces of these ancient peoples. Their expressions reflect their surprise at encountering such magnificent animals that would forever change their way of life. Through this illustration, we gain insight into one chapter of Mesopotamia's rich history - an era marked by invasions, cultural exchanges, and technological advancements. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict and upheaval, civilizations can evolve and adapt. Ken Welsh's expertly captured image allows us to delve into this fascinating period while appreciating both its historical significance and artistic beauty. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back thousands of years to bear witness to a pivotal moment in human civilization.
