EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Buying off Assur-bani-pal with gifts" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. Created by Robert Ambrose Dudley around 1910-15, this illustration is part of Hutchinson's History of the Nations collection. The scene depicted here transports us to 876 B. C. , as Assur-bani-pal, the powerful Assyrian leader, marches eastwards towards the Phoenicians. Faced with the threat of conflict and desiring to maintain peace with their superior neighbor, the Phoenicians attempt to appease Assur-bani-pal through an act of diplomacy - offering him lavish gifts. In this artwork, we witness a hillside setting amidst majestic mountains. The Phoenician king and his entourage stand before Assur-bani-pal's army armed with swords and spears. They present an array of valuable goods as a bribe to persuade the Assyrian ruler not to wage war upon them. The artist skillfully captures both tension and intrigue within this historical moment. Through intricate engraving techniques, he brings life to each soldier and every detail on their attire. This print from The Stapleton Collection serves as a visual reminder of how politics and power dynamics have shaped our world throughout centuries. As we gaze upon this lithograph today, it allows us not only to appreciate its artistic merit but also invites contemplation about ancient civilizations' strategies for survival amidst shifting geopolitical landscapes.
