EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic Roman aqueduct near Bardo, Tunis. Taken by a European photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the architectural marvels of ancient Rome that still stand tall in North Africa. The aqueduct's grandeur is beautifully highlighted against the backdrop of picturesque North Africa. The intricate details and precision of its construction are evident even in this monochromatic image. It serves as a testament to the engineering prowess of the Romans and their ability to create enduring structures that have stood the test of time. Published as an illustration for "Picturesque North Africa" in 1925, this print transports us back to a bygone era when explorers were captivated by exotic lands and sought to capture their beauty through photography. The gravure printing technique used adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its visual impact. Lehnert and Landrock, renowned photographers based in Cairo, deserve credit for capturing this remarkable shot. Their expertise shines through as they expertly frame the aqueduct within its surroundings, showcasing both its magnificence and integration with nature. As we gaze upon this photograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic value. It reminds us of our human capacity for innovation and creativity across centuries while offering a glimpse into a different time and place – where ancient ruins coexist harmoniously with modern civilization.
