Carving On Wall - A Glimpse into Ancient Babylon's Majestic Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the ruins of Babylon on a fateful day, June 24th, 1950. The lens of Raymond Kleboe captures an awe-inspiring carving of a horse on a weathered wall, standing as a testament to the once-great civilization that thrived in the heart of the Middle East. The square sculpture exudes an air of mystery and grandeur, its ancient origins shrouded in time. As we gaze upon this archival piece, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that lies within Iraq's historical tapestry. In this monochromatic composition devoid of human presence, our attention is solely drawn to this masterful craft product. The intricate details etched onto the stone surface reveal not only exceptional skill but also serve as a window into the artistic prowess prevalent during ancient times. This photograph sparks curiosity about life in Babylon centuries ago—its bustling streets, vibrant markets, and majestic structures now reduced to mere remnants. It invites us to ponder how such magnificent civilizations can fade away with time while leaving behind fragments that continue to captivate modern audiences. Raymond Kleboe's lens has immortalized this moment from 1950 for generations to come. Through his artistry and keen eye for detail, he allows us access into worlds long gone—a visual treasure trove that ignites our imagination and deepens our appreciation for humanity
