EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to ancient Egypt in the 19th century. The image showcases "The Kiosk" at Philae Temple, a remarkable structure that stood tall amidst the rubble of time. Published by Gaston Maspero in his renowned book "L'Egypte" this engraving beautifully captures the essence of this religious site. Standing against a clear sky, the temple's grandeur is emphasized by its towering pillars and intricate stone carvings. A solitary palm tree stands nearby, adding a touch of nature's beauty to this architectural marvel. The debris scattered around reminds us of the passage of centuries and serves as a testament to Egypt's rich history. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to an era where religion played a significant role in society. The Kiosk served as a place for worship and reflection for generations past, evoking feelings of awe and reverence even today. Through this print, we glimpse into the soul of ancient Egypt - a country steeped in tradition and mystique. It allows us to appreciate not only its artistic achievements but also its profound spiritual beliefs that shaped their civilization. This print is more than just an art media; it is an invaluable historical artifact that connects us with our ancestors' legacy. Thanks to Gaston Maspero's dedication in preserving these treasures, we can now witness firsthand the magnificence of Philae Temple from over a century ago.
