EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the majestic Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship showcased in this 19th-century print by English School truly bring this architectural marvel to life. The Hanging Gardens, located near present-day Al Hillah in Iraq, were a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. Rising high above the ancient city-state of Babylon, these gardens were a sight to behold with their lush greenery cascading down terraces supported by grand arches and columns. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into an era where beauty knew no bounds. The sheer scale and complexity of these gardens leave us awe-inspired as we imagine what it must have been like for visitors during that time. It is said that King Nebuchadnezzar II built these magnificent gardens for his queen who longed for her homeland's natural beauty. Engraved by Dalziel with meticulous precision, every line and curve captures the essence of this historical wonder. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate not only the architectural genius behind the Hanging Gardens but also its significance within ancient Babylonian culture. Through this artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can explore the rich tapestry of our past and delve deeper into humanity's quest for creating breathtaking landscapes against all odds.
