EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The capture of Jerusalem by the Persian general Shahrbaraz in 614AD" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by artist Kemp Tebby, this print showcases the talent and attention to detail that Arthur Kemp Tebby possessed during his time. The image depicts a city under siege, with an imposing army led by the Persian general Shahrbaraz. The soldiers are dressed in elaborate costumes, their weapons gleaming as they prepare for battle. The tension is palpable as they make their way towards Jerusalem's walls. Every aspect of this engraving tells a story: from the determined expressions on the faces of both attackers and defenders to the architectural details of the ancient city itself. It offers us a glimpse into a pivotal event that shaped not only Jerusalem's fate but also its significance within Christian history. As we gaze upon this litho, we cannot help but marvel at how it captures both the grandeur and brutality of war. It serves as a reminder of humanity's capacity for conquest and destruction while also highlighting our resilience and ability to rebuild. Now part of a private collection, this print was originally featured in Hutchinsons History of Nations circa 1920s. Its timeless appeal continues to resonate today, reminding us that history is not just confined within textbooks but can be brought vividly to life through art like this remarkable piece by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder.
