EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Pompeii Temple of Isis, also known as Tempio d Iside. Taken by German photographer and artist Kurt Hielscher in the early 20th century, this historic image showcases the beauty and significance of this ancient Italian landmark. The Temple of Isis was a sacred place dedicated to the Egyptian goddess Isis, who was worshipped by many in Pompeii during Roman times. The temple's intricate architecture is highlighted in this photograph, showcasing its impressive columns and detailed carvings. The image evokes a sense of awe as one imagines walking through these ancient ruins that have withstood the test of time. It transports us back to a different era, reminding us of Pompeii's tragic history when it was buried under volcanic ash after Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Hielscher's skillful use of photography adds depth and texture to the scene, emphasizing both light and shadows. This artistic choice enhances our perception of the temple's grandeur while capturing its timeless beauty. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded not only of Italy's rich historical heritage but also how art can transport us across centuries to experience moments long gone.
