The Tents of Shem
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment frozen in time, transporting us to an era long gone. In this engraving by Edward Frederick Brewtnall, we find ourselves amidst the hustle and bustle of a construction site. The scene is filled with a sense of urgency as workers scramble to complete their tasks. The sky above is vast and open, providing a stark contrast to the confined space below. Girders hang loose and trestles stand tall, creating an intricate web that seems both fragile and strong at the same time. Iron meets earth as men dash around, their panting breaths heard over the clanging sounds of metal. In the foreground, horses are seen tethered to a post - powerful animals rendered inert by their temporary confinement. Their presence adds an element of wildness amidst all this human activity; they serve as a reminder that nature still holds its ground even in man-made spaces. Grant Allen's "The Tents of Shem" comes alive through Brewtnall's skilled hand, capturing not only the physicality but also the energy and spirit of this great undertaking. It invites us to ponder on themes such as progress, industry, and our relationship with nature. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the determination etched on every face present within these tents.
