EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, specifically to Kalaat-El-Athlit, Cote de la Terre. The creator of this mesmerizing image is Louis de Clercq, a renowned photographer of his era. The photograph showcases the majestic Atlit Castle, located in what was then Syria but now resides within Israel's borders. The castle itself has a rich history dating back to the 13th century as a Crusader fortress known as Chateau Pelerin. Its imposing fortifications stand tall against the landscape, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. This remarkable piece of architecture serves as a testament to the medieval era and its significance in shaping the Holy Land. Louis de Clercq masterfully captures both the grandeur and decay of this historical landmark through his albumen silver print technique. The monochromatic tones add an air of mystery and nostalgia to the scene, transporting viewers into another time entirely. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its cultural significance. It stands as a reminder that even centuries later, remnants of our past continue to shape our present landscapes. Through photography like this one by Louis de Clercq, we can appreciate and preserve these heritage sites for generations to come.
