The Nubian temple of Kalabsheh, Egypt, 1905. Artist: Underwood & Underwood
The Nubian temple of Kalabsheh, Egypt, 1905. As Egyptian civilisation gradually spread in the country, the Pharaohs built temples here after the Egyptian style; it is incredible how a country of such scanty resources in agriculture could have supported so many enterprises of this sort. Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Nubian temple of Kalabsheh, captured in this stunning print from 1905, stands as a testament to the remarkable achievements of ancient Egyptian civilization. Built in the Egyptian style by Pharaohs who sought to spread their influence throughout the land, this temple showcases the ingenuity and architectural prowess of a people with limited agricultural resources. The landscape surrounding the temple is awe-inspiring, with the majestic Nile River flowing nearby. As we gaze upon these ruins today, it is difficult to fathom how such an arid country could have supported such grand enterprises. Yet, here they stand as a reminder of Egypt's glorious past. This stereoscopic card offers us a detailed view into this religious sanctuary that once thrived with activity and devotion. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness to the image, allowing us to transport ourselves back in time and imagine what life was like during its heyday. James H Breasted's accompanying text provides valuable insights into Egypt's rich history and geography. Through his words, we gain a deeper appreciation for not only the physical structure itself but also for the cultural significance it holds within its walls. As we contemplate this photograph by Underwood & Underwood, let us marvel at both human achievement and nature's ability to preserve fragments of our past.
