EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient city of Koom-Ombos in Egypt, circa 1843. Renowned artist George Moore skillfully captures the grandeur and architectural marvels of this historical site. The temple depicted here was initially constructed by Ptolemy VI Philometer around 191-145 BC and later expanded upon by his successors, most notably Ptolemy XIII during his reign from 62-47 BC. The image showcases the inner and outer hypostyle halls that were added to the temple during Ptolemy XIII's time. These halls are adorned with magnificent columns, each telling a story of Hellenistic influence blended with traditional Egyptian artistry. The lithograph is part of a larger collection titled "Views on the Nile: from Cairo to the Second Cataract" which features sketches taken in 1832 and 1833 by Owen Jones and Jules Goury. As we gaze at this print, we find ourselves transported through time to an era when religion played a central role in Egyptian society. The ruins before us stand as a testament to their once-thriving civilization, evoking both awe and curiosity about their beliefs and practices. This remarkable piece serves as a valuable archaeological artifact, preserving not only the physical remnants of an ancient temple but also providing insight into Egypt's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of our duty to protect these precious relics for future generations so that they too may be inspired by the wonders of our shared
