EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting Temple entrance of Kom Ombo, Egypt, circa 1890. The artist behind this mesmerizing image is Newton & Co. Kom Ombo itself is a unique site consisting of two temples dedicated to Sobek, the crocodile god, and Haroeris, the falcon-headed god. Originally initiated by Ptolemy VI Philometer in 191-145 BC, subsequent rulers like Ptolemy XIII (62-47 BC) expanded its grandeur by adding inner and outer hypostyle halls. As we delve into this monochromatic scene captured on a lantern slide, we are immersed in the architectural marvels that stand before us. The ruins of columns and pillars bear witness to centuries gone by while exuding an aura of religious significance. This archaeological gem offers a glimpse into ancient Egyptian history with its intricate carvings depicting deities and gods. The solemnity within these temple walls resonates through time as we explore the interior filled with remnants of a glorious past. Despite being in ruins, this location still emanates an undeniable sense of reverence for those who visit today. Through this remarkable photograph from Heritage Images' collection titled "Temple entrance, Kom Ombo" we are transported to a forgotten era where Hellenistic influences merged seamlessly with ancient Egyptian traditions. It serves as a powerful reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate the wonders left behind by our ancestors.
