EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical treasure, the "Map of Assyria, Chaldea and Adjacent Countries" from 1890. Created by an unknown artist, this map provides a glimpse into the ancient kingdoms that once thrived in Mesopotamia. Assyria, a powerful kingdom that spanned from the 25th century BC to 612 BC-609 BC, is depicted with intricate detail on this aged engraving. Its borders are clearly outlined alongside neighboring regions such as Chaldea. Chaldea itself existed between the late 10th or early 9th centuries BC until its assimilation into Babylonia during the mid-6th century BC. Taken from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History". Volume I - Early and Greek History by Edmund Ollier, this monochrome illustration transports us back to a time when these ancient civilizations flourished. The fine lines and delicate shading evoke a sense of reverence for their rich history. As we gaze upon this antique map, we are reminded of the significant role Mesopotamia played in shaping human civilization. It serves as both an educational tool and a work of art; its presence on our walls invites contemplation about our shared past. The print collector who discovered this gem has preserved not only an important piece of geography but also literature and culture from centuries ago. This remarkable find offers us insight into forgotten worlds while reminding us of humanity's enduring fascination with exploration and discovery.
