EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Shepherd and wife of Siloh" transports us to the ancient land of Syria. Created by the talented artist Y. Pranishnikoff, this print beautifully illustrates the story "La Syria d aujourd hui" written by M. Lortet, a distinguished figure in Lyon's Faculty of Medicine. The image showcases a shepherd and his wife amidst their daily life in Siloh. The intricate details captured by Pranishnikoff allow us to immerse ourselves in their world - from the rugged landscape surrounding them to the traditional clothing they wear. The couple exudes a sense of tranquility as they tend to their flock, symbolizing the timeless connection between humans and nature. Published in 1881 as part of Edouard Charton's renowned publication "Tour du monde" this engraving is not only an artistic masterpiece but also holds historical significance. It was created during a time when scientific missions were commissioned by France's Ministry of Public Education, emphasizing the importance placed on exploring different cultures and expanding knowledge beyond borders. Leonard de Selva has preserved this remarkable artwork within his private collection, ensuring its beauty continues to captivate audiences today. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene from centuries past, we are reminded of our shared humanity across time and space – a testament to both art's ability to transcend boundaries and our eternal quest for understanding.
