EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Ibsamboul, Colosse Medial (Enfoui) du Speos de Phre Nubie" transports us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt. Taken by Maxime du Camp in 1849/51 and printed in 1852, this salted paper print captures the essence of a monumental masterpiece from the 19th dynasty. The image showcases the middle colossus from the temple of Rameses II at Abu Simbel, located in present-day Nubia. The black and white composition emphasizes every intricate detail of this awe-inspiring structure carved into rock. The colossal figure stands tall against a backdrop that exudes history and spirituality. Du Camp's photograph allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of ancient Egyptian architecture but also its religious significance. The face of the colossus radiates power and divinity, reminding us of Egypt's rich cultural heritage. This work is part of an album titled "Egypte, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie" which serves as a visual journey through these historic lands. Du Camp's skillful photography brings these distant places closer to our hearts, allowing us to marvel at their beauty even centuries later. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Maxime du Camp, we are reminded that art has no boundaries or limitations when it comes to preserving our shared human history.
