EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to ancient Egypt, specifically to the Temple of Seti I in Abydos. The image showcases the remarkable Osireion or cenotaph, a structure that holds great historical and architectural significance. The Osireion is believed to have been built during the 19th Dynasty of Egypt, between 1292 and 1187 BC. It served as a memorial dedicated to Osiris, the god of the afterlife and resurrection. Its grandeur is evident even through this photographic print by Luisa Ricciarini. The composition beautifully captures the intricate details of Egyptian artistry and craftsmanship. The imposing columns with their ornate carvings stand tall against a backdrop of timeless ruins, evoking a sense of awe and wonderment. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within these ancient walls. We can almost hear whispers from centuries past echoing through its corridors. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also conveys an eerie atmosphere reminiscent of doom and mystery surrounding these ancient structures. This stunning piece serves as both a testament to human ingenuity and an invitation for us to delve into Egypt's fascinating past. It reminds us that even in our modern world, there is much wisdom we can glean from those who came before us.
