EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Beasley Greene transports us to the ancient wonders of Medinet Habu, specifically the Mortuary Temple of Ramses III. The left wall of this magnificent temple is beautifully captured in stunning detail, showcasing the intricate artistry and grandeur that once adorned these sacred grounds. As we gaze upon this archaeological masterpiece, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural significance that Egypt holds. The towering columns stand tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, evoking a sense of awe and reverence for the craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian architecture. Greene's expert use of salted paper printing brings out every nuance and texture on the surface, allowing us to appreciate even the smallest details etched into stone. Each pillar tells a story, each carving speaks volumes about religious beliefs and practices during Ramses III's reign. The photograph serves as a window through time, transporting us back to an era where pharaohs ruled with divine authority. It invites contemplation on our own place within history's vast tapestry while marveling at humanity's ability to create enduring works of art. Displayed in an esteemed art institute like Chicago's Art Institute, this image stands as a testament to both Greene's skill as a photographer and his dedication to preserving heritage through his lens. It reminds us that even centuries later, these architectural wonders continue to captivate audiences around the world with their timeless beauty.
