EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Karnak. Le temple de Ramses IV. Porte triomphale; Le Nord-Est Africain" by Felix Bonfils, dates back to 1914. It was published in the renowned French geography magazine "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree." The image showcases the triumphal arch of the Temple of Ramses IV at the ancient Egyptian city of Karnak, located in Luxor, Egypt. Karnak, an essential part of the vast Nile Valley civilization, is renowned for its significant archaeological sites and architectural wonders. This temple complex, dedicated to the god Amun, is one of the most visited historical sites in Egypt. The triumphal arch in the photograph is a remarkable architectural feature of the Temple of Ramses IV, which was built around 1150 BC. The archway stands tall and proud, with intricate carvings and hieroglyphics adorning its surface. The arch is a testament to the grandeur and religious significance of the ancient Egyptian civilization. The photograph, taken during the 19th century, captures the essence of the ancient ruins, showcasing their timeless beauty and historical significance. The muted colors and subtle tones of the image add to its antique charm, transporting us back in time to the land of the pharaohs. The Temple of Ramses IV is situated in Thebes, an ancient Egyptian city also known as Waset or Uqsur. Thebes was the capital city of Egypt during the New Kingdom and was the center of religious and political power. The city is home to numerous temples and monuments, making it a must-visit destination for history and archaeology enthusiasts. The photograph, taken by the French photographer Felix Bonfils, provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of ancient Egypt, which continues to fascinate and inspire people around the world.
