EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "General view of ruins, Philae, Egypt, c1890" takes us on a journey through time to the ancient temple complex on the island of Philae. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Newton & Co. The image showcases the majestic architecture and religious significance of these ruins. Built in the 4th century BC, they have witnessed centuries of history unfold along the banks of the Nile. However, as progress brought about by the construction of Aswan Dam raised floodwaters that threatened their existence, these buildings were painstakingly dismantled and reconstructed on another nearby island during the 1970s. Every detail captured in this photograph tells a story: from the towering columns and pillars that once adorned grand halls to remnants of Roman influence seen in colonnades. It's an archaeological treasure trove that speaks volumes about ancient Egyptian civilization. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when Philae was at its prime - a hub for religious worship and cultural exchange between Egypt and Rome. This print serves as a poignant reminder not only of our rich architectural heritage but also how human ingenuity can preserve it against all odds. With its intricate details preserved for eternity through this lantern slide-turned-artwork, "General view of ruins" invites us to explore our past while appreciating how far we've come in preserving our shared history.
