EDITORS COMMENTS
Medinet-Habou, Facade Septentrionale du Gynecee de Ramses-Mé (Medinet-Habou, Northern Façade of the Harem of Ramesses Meiamoun; Thebes, 1849/51, printed 1852) captures the essence of ancient Egyptian architecture and art. This black and white salted paper print, plate 49 from the album "Egypte, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie" (1852), showcases the remarkable heritage art found in Luxor's Medinet Habu. The photograph by Maxime du Camp takes us back to the 19th century when Egypt was a captivating land filled with historical wonders. Standing against a backdrop of ruins and burial sites in this middle eastern country, a lone man gazes at the majestic facade of Ramesses III's gynaeceum. The intricate details and grandeur of this mortuary temple are awe-inspiring. Du Camp expertly captures both the beauty and decay present in this ancient site. The weathered textures on the building exterior tell stories of centuries gone by while evoking a sense of mystery and reverence for Egypt's rich history. With its strong composition and use of black and white tones, this photograph transports viewers to another time. As we admire this image at an art gallery or institute like Chicago's Art Institute, we can't help but be reminded that even amidst ruin and death lies profound religious significance. Medinet-Habou stands as a testament to human ingenuity as well as our eternal quest for spiritual connection.
