Specificatii
One of the best-known images of the ancient Near East is an
intriguing nineteenth-century color lithograph reconstructing the
throne room of an Assyrian palace. Executed shortly after the
archaeological rediscovery of Assyria, a land theretofore known
only from the Bible, it was published by the most famous among
early excavators of Assyrian ruins, Austen Henry Layard. Over time
and despite criticisms, the picture has shaped the understanding
and reception of ancient Mesopotamian architecture and
architectural decoration. Inside an Ancient Assyrian Palace studies
this influential image in depth, both at the time of its creation
in London in the eventful year 1848 and in terms of its afterlife.
A hidden inscription reveals unsuspected contributions by the
renowned architect-designer Owen Jones and his colleague the
architect-Egyptologist Joseph Bonomi. Also unexpected is the
involvement of an enigmatic German artist who later emigrated to
America and whose previous career in Europe had been lost to
scholarship. This book will be of interest to scholars and students
of art history and the ancient Near East. It will also be of
relevance to museum visitors and others interested in the ancient
world in general, in the art of the nineteenth century, and in
design and historical reconstruction.
