EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient city of Thebes, Egypt. Captured by Henry Cammas, a talented French photographer from the 19th century, this image showcases the majestic site of Karnak in all its glory. Karnak, known for its grand temples and monumental structures, is beautifully depicted in this albumenized salted paper print. The intricate details and architectural marvels are brought to life through Cammas' lens. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost feel the weight of history that permeates every stone. The composition allows us to appreciate the vastness of Karnak's sprawling complex, with its towering columns and imposing statues standing as testaments to an ancient civilization's power and devotion. The play of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the scene, enhancing our sense of awe. Cammas' choice to use a waxed paper negative further enhances the texture and tonal range captured in this print. It is evident that great care was taken during both the exposure process in 1860 and printing around 1862. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to create enduring wonders that transcend time itself. It invites us into an exploration of one of Egypt's most iconic sites while paying homage to Henry Cammas' skillful artistry behind the camera lens.
