EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient city of Caesarea in Cappadocia, Turkey, circa 1890. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their lens has captured a moment frozen in time. Caesarea's rich history unfolds before our eyes as we witness the remnants of its past glory. Destroyed by Sassanid king Shapur I after his victory over Emperor Valerian I in AD 260, this once-thriving city gradually recovered and became home to numerous early Christian saints. Kayseri Castle, an imposing fortification built between 238-244AD, stands tall on a hillside overlooking the landscape. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of nostalgia and mystery to the scene. The rooftops of Caesarea's buildings stretch out into the distance, hinting at stories untold within their walls. It is as if time itself has painted these ruins with shades of gray. As we gaze upon this engraving from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" compiled by Edmund Ollier in 1890, we are transported to a different era altogether. This photograph not only captures a physical location but also evokes emotions tied to literature and art. Through this image, we are reminded that even amidst destruction and ruin, there is always hope for recovery and renewal – just like Caesarea itself experienced throughout its tumultuous history.
