EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic "Statue of Memnon" in Thebes, Egypt, taken by Maxime Du Camp, a renowned French photographer from 1822 to 1894. Accompanied by Louis Desire Blanquart-Evrard, another talented French artist from 1802 to 1872, they embarked on a journey to document the wonders of ancient Egypt. The statue itself stands tall and proud against the backdrop of an awe-inspiring landscape. Crafted with intricate detail and precision, it exudes an air of mystery and grandeur that has fascinated generations. This particular print was created using a salted paper technique from a paper negative captured on May 9th, 1850. Measuring at approximately 21.4 × 16.4 cm (8⅞ × 6⅞ inches), this artwork transports viewers back in time to experience the splendor of ancient Egyptian civilization firsthand. The delicate tones and textures showcased in this print add depth and richness to every element captured within its frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph today, we are reminded not only of the artistic prowess displayed by Du Camp and Blanquart-Evrard but also of their dedication to preserving history through their lens. This image serves as a testament to their passion for capturing moments frozen in time for future generations to appreciate and admire.
