EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Piliers dans la cour du palais de Rhamses-Meiamoun" takes us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt in the 19th century. Captured by Maxime du Camp, a French archaeologist and photographer, this image transports us to the courtyard of the majestic palace of Ramesses III in Medinet-habou (Thebes). The photograph showcases the remarkable architecture and grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization. The towering pillars stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by, their weathered surfaces telling stories of a glorious past. As we gaze upon this archaeological site, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within these ruins. Du Camp's skillful use of photography adds an air of timelessness to this scene. The absence of color allows us to focus on the intricate details etched into each pillar and appreciate their artistic craftsmanship. Through this photograph, Du Camp invites us to explore not only Egypt's architectural marvels but also its religious heritage. We can almost sense the spiritual significance that once filled these sacred grounds. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this salted paper print serves as a testament to Du Camp's dedication in preserving cultural treasures through his lens. It is a visual reminder that even after centuries have passed, our fascination with ancient civilizations endures.
