EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Heinrich Schliemann's excavations at Mycenae in 1877. The image showcases an artist diligently sketching in front of the magnificent Lion gateway, a symbol of power and grandeur. Mycenae, located in the Peloponnese region of Greece, was believed to be the legendary capital city of King Agamemnon. Heinrich Schliemann, a German archaeologist renowned for his discoveries in ancient civilizations, led this groundbreaking excavation project. His meticulous efforts uncovered the remnants of a once-thriving Bronze Age civilization that had long been lost to time. In this engraving from The Illustrated London News, we witness a snapshot from that era as men engage in their respective professions amidst the ruins. The dilapidated stone walls stand as silent witnesses to centuries past while providing valuable insights into our human history. The significance of this archaeological site cannot be overstated; it sheds light on an ancient city that flourished during one of humanity's most fascinating periods. This print serves as a testament to both Schliemann's dedication and expertise as well as our collective fascination with unraveling the mysteries hidden beneath layers of time. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene captured by an unknown creator, we are transported back to the 19th century when exploration and discovery were at their peak. It is through images like these that we can appreciate how far we have come in understanding our past while fueling our curiosity
