EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "View in Southern Armenia, 1890" takes us back to the ancient kingdom of Armenia during a significant period in its history. The image showcases the remarkable landscape that has witnessed centuries of civilization unfold. Armenia's roots can be traced back to 321 BC when it became a kingdom under the Orontid dynasty. Following Alexander the Great's conquest of Persia, Armenia transformed into one of the Hellenistic kingdoms within the vast Seleucid Empire. The photograph is extracted from Edmund Ollier's renowned book, "Cassells Illustrated Universal History". Published by Cassell and Company Ltd. in London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890, this engraving offers a glimpse into an era long gone. The scene captures a distant hilltop settlement nestled amidst breathtaking mountains. A mud hut stands as a testament to ancient architecture while showcasing life outside urban centers during that time. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to this historic illustration. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing view frozen in time between two different centuries - the fourth century BC and nineteenth-century AD - we are reminded of how landscapes endure while civilizations rise and fall. This photograph serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of Southern Armenia's rich heritage.
