EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Triumphal Arch at Jerash, taken from the south in 1875. The photograph, captured by Tancrede Dumas, is part of the Palestine Exploration Fund collection in London. The arch, built around 129 AD to commemorate Emperor Hadrian's visit, stands as a testament to classical architecture and triumph. Serving as an old entrance to the city of Jerash, it is commonly referred to as Hadrian's Arch. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the grandeur and splendor that once adorned this ancient Roman city. Despite its age and weathered appearance, the arch still exudes a sense of power and resilience. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse of history frozen in time - remnants of a glorious past that continue to captivate our imagination. The ruins surrounding the arch serve as a reminder of Jerash's rich heritage and its significance within Transjordan. Dumas' skillful photography captures every intricate detail with precision - from the worn-out stones on the archway to the vastness beyond it. This image serves not only as documentation but also as artistry that evokes emotions and sparks curiosity about civilizations long gone. As we admire this remarkable piece captured over a century ago, we are reminded of how photography can transport us through time and connect us with cultures that have shaped our world today.
