EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the tragic event of the "Sinking of the Jourdain at Beirut in 1863". The image, based on a photograph by M. Mourgueville, showcases a coloured engraving skillfully created by Louis Lebreton. Preserved in a private collection, this historical piece transports us back to that fateful day when disaster struck. The scene depicts a shipwrecked vessel that ran aground and broke into two pieces amidst the rocky shores of Beirut's harbor. The wreckage is surrounded by brave sailors who are engaged in a daring rescue mission. Their rowing boats navigate through treacherous waters as they strive to save lives from this maritime catastrophe. Lebanon's coastline serves as both witness and backdrop to this dramatic event. In the distance, we can glimpse an imposing fort standing tall against the crashing waves—a symbol of resilience amidst chaos. Lola Claeys Bouuaert has masterfully brought this historic moment to life through her artistic interpretation. Through her skilled engraving technique, she highlights not only the tragedy but also emphasizes humanity's capacity for courage and compassion during times of crisis. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork, we are reminded of the fragility of human existence and our shared responsibility to come together in times of adversity. This print stands as a testament to both history's lessons and art's ability to immortalize them for generations to come.
