From the majestic Temple of Jupiter in Baalbek to the enigmatic Sphinx and towering pyramids of Menkazeh, du Camp's lens transports us to ancient civilizations. In Siout, we witness the serene beauty of Muslim tombs, a testament to their rich cultural heritage. The photographs from c. 1852 allow us a glimpse into du Camp's world, where he skillfully immortalizes his surroundings. Venturing further south along the banks of the Second Cataracte, we are treated to mesmerizing views of Djebel-Aboucir and its rugged landscapes. At this remote location, du Camp captures scenes that seem untouched by time itself. The First Cataracte beckons us with its allure on the right bank while Abousembil reveals half-facade wonders within Athor's Speos d'Athor temple complex. Pylones at Sebona Temple stand tall against an azure sky in April 1850 - a sight that leaves one awestruck. Delving deeper into Egypt's historical tapestry, we find ourselves standing before Sultan El-Goury's tomb in Kaire (Cairo). Du Camp masterfully encapsulates its grandeur during December 1849-January 1850. Finally, our journey concludes with a panoramic view of Baalbek's ruins captured from its eastern side - an awe-inspiring testament to human ingenuity across millennia. Join Maxime du Camp as he unravels these captivating glimpses from September 15th and December 1849-January 1850 – immersing yourself in timeless wonders preserved forever through his lens.
