EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Roman Soldiers Firing the Temple of Jerusalem" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created in 1890 by an unknown artist, this image is part of the renowned book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History Vol. II - Rome" by Edmund Ollier. The scene depicted here transports us to ancient Rome during the 1st century BC. It showcases a fierce battle between Roman soldiers and their adversaries in Jerusalem's temple area. The intensity of warfare is palpable as flames engulf the sacred structure, symbolizing destruction and death. The monochrome engraving adds a timeless quality to this historic illustration, emphasizing its significance even in modern times. The hills surrounding Jerusalem's temple mount provide a dramatic backdrop for this violent clash between armies.

This artwork captures both the political turmoil and military might that defined ancient Rome. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the brutality of war and its devastating consequences.
