EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, created by Sydney Hodges in 1866, showcases the enigmatic figure of Heinrich Schliemann. Schliemann, a renowned German archaeologist and pioneer of modern archaeology, is depicted with an air of intellectual curiosity and determination. Hodges masterfully captures Schliemann's piercing gaze as he stares into the distance, hinting at his unwavering dedication to uncovering ancient civilizations. The artist's use of oil on canvas brings out the intricate details of Schliemann's facial features and adds depth to his expression. The realism portrayed in this painting allows us to delve into the mind of a man who would later discover Troy and Mycenae, forever changing our understanding of history. As we admire this print from Staatliche Museen Berlin's collection today, we are reminded of Schliemann's significant contributions to archaeological research. This fine art image transports us back to 19th-century Berlin when Schliemann was at the height of his career. It serves as a testament not only to Hodges' artistic talent but also to the enduring legacy left behind by individuals like Heinrich Schliemann who dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries buried beneath our feet.
