EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Artifacts, Memphis Saqqara, Egypt, 1893" takes us back to the enchanting world of ancient Egypt. Taken by French archaeologist Auguste Mariette-Bey La Haute-Egypt in the late 19th century, this image showcases a group of remarkable artifacts discovered during an excavation in Saqqara. The composition transports us to a time long gone as we witness these precious objects that once held great significance for the people of ancient Egypt. The monochrome tones add an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene, emphasizing the timeless beauty and historical importance of these relics. Each artifact tells its own story - from intricately carved statues to delicate pottery fragments. They offer glimpses into the lives and beliefs of those who lived centuries ago in this fascinating country. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how archeology allows us to connect with our past and gain a deeper understanding of human history. Located near Cairo, Saqqara is known for its necropolis where pharaohs were laid to rest. This photo captures not only the physical objects but also evokes emotions surrounding death and burial rituals practiced by ancient Egyptians. Auguste Edouard Mariette's keen eye for detail captured these artifacts with precision and artistic flair. Through his lens, he immortalized these treasures so that future generations could appreciate their beauty and cultural significance.
