EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Views of Cyprus (engraving)" takes us on a visual journey through the ancient island of Cyprus in the 19th century. The engraving, created by the English School, offers a glimpse into the rich history and topography of this Mediterranean gem. In this particular image, we are transported to a serene monastery camp nestled amidst breathtaking views. The site exudes tranquility and invites contemplation as we imagine monks going about their daily routines within its walls. The engraving also showcases other notable locations such as Ancient Paphos and Nicosia, allowing us to marvel at their architectural grandeur even from afar. These historical sites serve as reminders of Cyprus' significant role throughout centuries past. Furthermore, military camps can be seen scattered across the landscape, indicating an era when Sir Garnet Wolseley's staff established headquarters in Cyprus. This adds another layer of intrigue to the image, hinting at political or strategic implications that may have shaped the island's history during that time. Overall, this print not only captures stunning scenery but also provides valuable insights into both ancient and more recent aspects of Cypriot life. It serves as a testament to Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving and sharing fine art with audiences worldwide while igniting our curiosity about distant lands and their fascinating stories.
