EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the entablature of a portico in the courtyard of the Sanctuary of Jupiter Heliopolitanus, located in Baalbek, Lebanon. The entablature, which dates back to the High Imperial Period (27 BC-395 AD), is a stunning example of Roman architecture. The image captures the intricate details and grandeur of this ancient structure. The Corinthian style columns stand tall and proud, supporting an ornate frieze adorned with delicate carvings. Each element tells a story from a bygone era, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. Baalbek, known as Heliopolis during the Roman period, was not only a colonial town but also an important pilgrimage site. This sanctuary served as a place for worship and reverence towards Jupiter Heliopolitanus. The ruins depicted in this photograph are remnants of an empire that once thrived here. They bear witness to centuries of history and human ingenuity. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel transported back in time to when these structures were at their prime. Gerard Degeorge's skillful composition allows us to appreciate every architectural detail while capturing the essence and beauty of this ancient site. This print serves as both a visual feast for art enthusiasts and a window into our rich cultural heritage.
