EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite vulture ceiling decorations found in Philae, Egypt. The photograph was taken in 1928 by an unknown creator and is a part of Achille Constant Théodore Émile Prisse d'Avennes' book titled "An Encyclopaedia of Colour Decoration from the Earliest Times to the Middle of the XIXth Century" with explanatory text by Helmuth Bossert. The upper condor depicted in this image originates from the ceiling of the portal at the Temple of Isis in Philae, dating back to 370 B. C. Meanwhile, the lower condor comes from Nektanebis' portal (378-361 B. C. ), built during his reign as one of the mightiest rulers of XXXth Dynasty. These ancient architectural features provide a glimpse into Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. The lithograph beautifully captures these decorative elements, showcasing their intricate design and vibrant colors. It serves as a testament to Emile Prisse d'Avennes' dedication to documenting and preserving ancient Egyptian art and architecture. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time, imagining ourselves standing inside these magnificent structures adorned with such stunning ceiling decorations. This piece not only highlights Egypt's archaeological significance but also celebrates its artistic achievements throughout centuries. With Ernst Wasmuth Ltd. 's publication bringing attention to these remarkable findings, we can appreciate how literature has played a crucial role in spreading knowledge about different cultures worldwide. This print truly encapsulates both beauty and historical importance within its frame.
