EDITORS COMMENTS
L'Île de Philae: Le Nord-Est Africain" is a captivating photograph taken by the renowned French photographer Jules Gervais-Courtellemont in 1914. The image is a stunning representation of the ancient Philae Temple, located on the eponymous island in the Nile River in Egypt. The photograph transports us back in time to the early 20th century, showcasing the temple complex as it was before the construction of the Aswan High Dam in the 1960s, which led to the relocation of the temple to Agilkia Island. The Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis, is a remarkable archaeological site that has captivated scholars and travelers for centuries. The temple complex, adorned with intricate carvings and hieroglyphics, is a testament to the rich history and religious traditions of ancient Egypt. The photograph offers a breathtaking view of the temple, with the island's lush vegetation and the vast expanse of the Nile River in the background. The temple's ruins, partially submerged in the water, add to the mystical allure of the scene. The photograph is taken from a bird's eye view, providing a unique perspective of the temple and its surroundings. The image is a beautiful representation of the temple's location in the Nile Valley, surrounded by the desert landscape of Upper Egypt. The photograph is a valuable historical record of the Philae Temple as it was before significant changes to the area. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving historical sites and the role that photography plays in documenting and sharing the world's cultural heritage. Jules Gervais-Courtellemont was a prolific photographer who traveled extensively throughout the world, capturing images of various geographical features, landscapes, and cultures.
