EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph transports us back to the ancient city of Edfou in the 19th century. Created by talented artist Henry Pilleau, this print showcases the remarkable architecture and religious significance of this archaeological site. The image captures a stunning panorama of Edfou's ruins, revealing its grandeur even in a state of decay. The focal point is undoubtedly the magnificent temple dedicated to Horus, an important deity in ancient Egyptian religion. Its towering colonnade and intricate pillars stand as testaments to the skilled craftsmanship of the time. As we explore further into the scene, we notice people scattered throughout the courtyard, adding a sense of scale and life to this historical snapshot. They appear dwarfed by their surroundings, emphasizing just how awe-inspiring these ancient structures must have been. Pilleau's attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this architectural marvel – from the weathered columns that bear witness to centuries gone by, to delicate carvings depicting gods and goddesses that once held great importance for worshippers who visited this sacred place. This lithograph not only serves as a visual record but also evokes curiosity about Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. It reminds us that even in ruinous states, these remnants hold immense value as they connect us with our past.
