EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Eastern columns of the Temple of Isis in Philae, Nubia, Egypt. Taken in 1887 by the talented artist Henri Bechard, this image showcases the remarkable architecture and archaeological significance of this ancient site. The photograph transports us back to the 19th century, allowing us to marvel at the grandeur of these towering columns that have withstood centuries of history. The Ptolemaic period is evident in their design, reflecting a blend of Egyptian and Greek influences. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we can't help but feel a sense of awe at how time has weathered these once sacred structures. The ruins stand as a testament to an ancient civilization's devotion to religion and country. Each pillar tells a story; each column whispers secrets from a distant past. They evoke feelings of reverence for those who worshipped within these hallowed walls long ago. This print serves as both an artwork and an archaeological artifact - preserving not only the physical remnants but also capturing the essence and spirit of ancient Egypt. It reminds us that even in ruin, there is beauty; even in decay, there is history waiting to be discovered. From its collection at Bibliotheque Nationale de France, this print allows us to appreciate Henri Bechard's talent while immersing ourselves in the rich heritage left behind by our ancestors.
