EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the awe-inspiring "Colossus Memnon Colosses de Memnon" captured by Antonio Beato. The image, taken between 1880 and 1889, features the colossal statues known as the Colosses de Memnon in Egypt. Antonio Beato, an Italian-born English photographer, skillfully composed this albumen silver print to highlight the grandeur of these ancient monuments. Standing tall against a vast desert backdrop, these towering figures evoke a sense of mystery and wonder. The Colosses de Memnon were originally part of a massive temple complex dedicated to Pharaoh Amenhotep III in Thebes (modern-day Luxor). Each statue measures over 18 meters high and depicts Amenhotep III seated on his throne. These imposing sculptures have endured for thousands of years, surviving countless generations and witnessing history unfold before their stone eyes. Beato's photograph captures not only the physical beauty but also reflects upon the historical significance of these iconic structures. It invites viewers to contemplate their place in time and marvel at humanity's ability to create enduring works of art. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to an era when pharaohs ruled over ancient Egypt. Through Beato's lens, we can almost hear whispers from centuries past echoing through these silent giants - a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression that continues to captivate us today.
