EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in history - the placement of the Luxor Obelisk on Place de la Concorde in Paris in 1836. The obelisk, originally from Luxor, Egypt, stands tall and proud amidst the bustling cityscape of Paris. Its ancient beauty juxtaposed against the modern architecture is truly awe-inspiring. The photographer's identity remains unknown, but their skillful composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this iconic monument. The sharp lines and contrasting shadows create a sense of depth that draws us into the scene. This postcard from a private collection takes us back to early 20th century France, reminding us of the rich cultural exchange between nations during this time. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to preserve historical treasures for generations to come. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported through time and space - from ancient Egypt to 19th century Paris. We can almost feel the energy emanating from Place de la Concorde as people pass by, unaware of the significance that this obelisk holds. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by history, this postcard offers a glimpse into a momentous event that forever changed both Parisian and Egyptian landscapes.
