EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by A. Sirouy takes us on a visual journey to the ancient city of Massada, accompanied by a group of Aduan Arabs hailing from Yemenite origins. The men in this image serve as the narrators' escort, guiding them along the road to their destination. Published in 1882 as part of "The Story of Syria Today" by M. Lortet, dean of Lyon's Faculty of Medicine and commissioned by the Ministry of Public Education, this illustration offers a glimpse into the cultural diversity and historical significance of the region during that time. The scene depicts a moment frozen in time - dusty roads winding through arid landscapes, with towering cliffs serving as an awe-inspiring backdrop. The Aduan Arabs stand tall and proud, showcasing their unique attire and distinct features that reflect their Yemenite heritage. As we gaze upon this print from Leonard de Selva's private collection, we are transported back to an era when exploration and scientific missions fueled curiosity about distant lands. Through artistry and storytelling, Sirouy captures not only the physical journey but also invites us to imagine the tales these Arab escorts could share about their rich culture and experiences along this historic route. This engraving serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation – preserving moments like these for generations to come.
