EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Ancient Egypt, specifically to the Temple of Horus in Edfu. The image showcases a remarkable wall carving depicting the revered Goddess Isis. Dating from 237 - 57 BC, this artwork is a testament to the rich cultural and artistic heritage of this ancient civilization. The intricate details and craftsmanship of the carving are truly awe-inspiring. Every stroke and curve brings out the divine beauty of Goddess Isis, who was highly venerated as a symbol of motherhood, magic, and fertility in Egyptian mythology. The Temple of Horus itself is an architectural marvel that stands as a testament to the grandeur and sophistication achieved by ancient Egyptians. Located on the west bank of the Nile River, it served as a place for worship dedicated to Horus, one of their most important deities. Photographer Mary Jelliffe has skillfully captured this momentous piece of history through her lens. Her expertise in capturing not just an image but also its essence shines through in this photograph. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be transported back thousands of years ago when these walls were adorned with vibrant colors that have since faded away. It serves as a reminder that art has always been an integral part of human expression throughout history.
