James Rattray
Temple of 'Ahmed Shauh', King of Afghanistan
The current situation in Afghanistan in desperate. Posting memes found on Twitter doesn't mean anything and won't change a thing. Nothing will. But I do think about it and then I just have to go into the escapist dream world of history.
This is how the tomb of the King Aḥmad Shāh Durrānī (I know, a tautology, as shah already means king) who conquered Delhi and more or less founded modern Afghanistan, looked in 1848. The building is still there in Kandahar. James Rattray was a British Lieutenant who made a rather fascinating work with a lot of ethnographic lithographies from his own sketches. I have been looking at other pictures to see those stately mountains and even though it might be exaggerated in this it does seem that it is a beautiful city in the mountains.

Giovanni Battista Piranesi
Allegorical Frontispiece of Rome and its history
One of those strange, imaginary cities that grew out of Piranesi's obsession with Rome. An allegory with two vanishing points, stones stacked on top of each other like some crazy Lego-project.
