This photo print, titled "Beni-Hacan, Architecture Hypogeene - Tombeau de Nevothph" takes us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt in the 19th century. Captured by French photographer Felix Teynard in 1851-52 and printed in 1853-54, this image showcases the architectural marvels found at Beni-Hacan. Located in Al Minya, Upper Egypt, this archaeological site holds great historical significance. The photograph transports us to a burial ground filled with mausoleums and tombs that date back centuries. The concept of death and its importance in Egyptian culture is beautifully portrayed through Teynard's lens. The salted paper print technique used adds a timeless quality to the image, enhancing our connection with the past. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for the craftsmanship displayed by ancient Egyptians.
