EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Les granites de Philae; Le Nord-Est Africain' (The Granites of Philae; Northeast Africa), was published in the renowned French geographical magazine 'Grande Geographie Bongiana' in 1914. The image showcases a breathtaking landscape in Egypt, specifically the area around the ancient site of Philae, located near the southern end of the Nile Valley. The photograph presents a stunning view of the massive, weathered granite rocks that dominate the landscape. These rocks, which are a characteristic feature of the region, are a testament to the geological history of the area and have been shaped over millennia by the forces of nature. The Nile River, a vital source of life and water in this arid region, meanders through the landscape, adding a sense of tranquility and dynamism to the scene. The ancient site of Philae, which is visible in the background, is a significant historical and cultural landmark. It was an important center of worship for the ancient Egyptians, particularly for the goddess Isis. The site is adorned with intricate carvings and statues, many of which have been preserved to this day. The photograph was taken in the early 20th century, during a time when Europeans were increasingly exploring and documenting the world around them. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a window into a time when the wonders of the ancient world were still being discovered and documented. Despite the passage of time, the landscape depicted in this photograph remains largely unchanged, making it a valuable record of the natural and cultural heritage of Northeast Africa.
