EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sargon II, the proclaimed king of Assyria in 722 BC. Taken from Hutchinson's History of the Nations, published in 1915, this image transports us back to a significant moment in ancient history. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of a ceremonial proclamation, where Sargon II assumes his role as ruler with great dignity and authority. The scene is filled with an air of grandeur and power as people gather around to witness this historical event. The richly detailed costumes and intricate decorations reflect the opulence and sophistication of Assyrian civilization during that time period. Sargon II stands tall at the center, exuding confidence and strength befitting a king. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the vastness and complexity of human history. It serves as a reminder that civilizations rise and fall, leaving behind traces for future generations to explore and learn from. This image not only offers insight into ancient political systems but also provides a glimpse into the cultural practices surrounding royal ceremonies. Ken Welsh's skillful capture allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty inherent in such historical illustrations while also igniting our curiosity about these long-lost civilizations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but marvel at how far humanity has come since those ancient times while acknowledging our shared heritage with those who came before us.
