EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1898, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient Egypt. The image showcases the magnificent Entrance to the temple at Edfu, a structure dedicated to Horus, one of Egypt's most revered deities. Built between 237 and 57 BC on the banks of the River Nile, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to the rich history and religious significance of this North African country. The photograph captures both locals and tourists alike, standing in awe before the towering entrance adorned with intricate hieroglyphics. The scale of the ruins is truly impressive, emphasizing their enduring presence even after centuries have passed. As we peer through these majestic doors into what lies beyond, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of ancient rituals and sacred ceremonies that once took place within these hallowed walls. Christian Wilhelm Allers skillfully captured this moment in time as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), where he not only wrote but also illustrated his travel experiences. Through his lens, Allers brings forth not just an image but an entire world steeped in history and culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable lithograph today, it serves as a reminder of Egypt's timeless allure as a tourist attraction for those seeking to immerse themselves in its fascinating past. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate how art can transport us across continents and centuries while preserving moments that might otherwise be lost forever.
