EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Valley of Topheth, II, Kings, xxiii, 10" takes us back to biblical times. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century and now part of a private collection, this print offers a glimpse into the ancient Valley of Topheth. The image depicts a desolate landscape with rugged cliffs and barren trees. The atmosphere is eerie and hauntingly beautiful. It transports us to a time when this valley held great significance in religious history. According to the Bible verse referenced in the title (II Kings, xxiii, 10), Topheth was once used for child sacrifices during pagan rituals. However, it later became associated with divine punishment and destruction. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched on this engraving tells a story. The digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate its intricate beauty even more. Originally published as an illustration for "The Sunday Scrap Book" around 1890 by Cassell & Co. , this print has stood the test of time. Its inclusion in Look and Learn's collection showcases its enduring appeal. Whether you are drawn to biblical history or simply admire fine artistry from centuries past, this engraving will captivate your imagination and transport you back in time to witness one of humanity's most profound stories unfold within the Valley of Topheth.
