EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Hemicycle de l enceinte des Temples, a Baalbek, September 15,1850" takes us back to the ancient city of Baalbek in Lebanon during the 19th century. Maxime du Camp's expertly captured image showcases the remarkable archaeological site that was once part of ancient Rome. The photograph reveals an awe-inspiring landscape filled with ruins of temples and buildings that stand as a testament to the rich history and architectural prowess of this magnificent city. The Hemicycle de l enceinte des Temples dominates the frame, its grandeur still evident even in its ruined state. As we explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site through du Camp's lens, we are transported to a bygone era where religion played a significant role in daily life. The religious significance is palpable as we imagine worshippers flocking to these sacred grounds centuries ago. The salted paper print technique used by du Camp adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing our connection with this historic location. It invites us to contemplate not only the physical beauty but also ponder on how time has shaped these ruins into symbols of endurance and resilience. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and encourages us to appreciate both the architectural marvels created by civilizations past and their enduring impact on our present-day world.
