EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable relief from ancient Nimrud, Calah in Iraq, belonging to the Assyrian civilization of the 8th century BC. The intricate carving depicts a scene of intense danger and desperation as people attempt to escape from a city besieged by Ashurbanipal. In this particular detail, we witness fugitives bravely swimming across a river in their desperate bid for freedom. The craftsmanship evident in this stone sculpture is truly awe-inspiring. Every delicate stroke captures the essence of fear and determination etched on the faces of these refugees. The horizontal composition allows us to fully immerse ourselves in their harrowing journey, while also highlighting the lush tree-lined riverbank that serves as both an obstacle and potential salvation. As we delve into this piece of archeological treasure, it transports us back to an era long gone but not forgotten – a time when survival meant risking everything for a chance at life beyond war-torn walls. Though devoid of any human presence today, this relic speaks volumes about our shared history and reminds us of the resilience inherent within humanity. Through its depiction of fleeing individuals with flowing beards and side profiles reminiscent of male likenesses common during that period, this relief offers valuable insights into ancient Assyrian culture and artistry. It stands as a testament to our enduring fascination with unraveling stories from the past through art and craft.
