EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Gournah, Colosse Monolithe d Amenopht III; Thebes" takes us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt during the 18th dynasty. Captured by French photographer Maxime du Camp in 1849/51 and printed in 1852, this salted paper print showcases the colossal statue of Amenhotep III, also known as Amenophis III. The image transports us to a time when this magnificent monolith stood proudly in the Theban necropolis, near modern-day Luxor. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded of the grandeur and power that once characterized ancient Egyptian civilization. Du Camp's meticulous composition emphasizes both the scale and intricate details of this monumental sculpture. Its weathered surface tells tales of centuries past while its imposing presence commands reverence even through a simple black and white medium. As we contemplate this photograph, our minds wander to questions about life and death, kingship and legacy. We find ourselves immersed in a moment frozen in time—a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's art gallery, this particular piece from Du Camp's album "Egypte Nubie Palestine et Syrie" serves as a window into history for all who encounter it. It reminds us that art has an incredible ability to transcend time, connecting us with civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
