EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient city of Memphis in Egypt, specifically to the mesmerizing Necropolis of Saqqara. The image showcases the remarkable funerary complex of Gioser, a testament to the architectural genius of the Old Kingdom's Dynasty III during the 3rd millennium BC. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported into a world where history and civilization intertwine seamlessly. The ruins and walls that stand before us bear witness to an ancient civilization that thrived thousands of years ago. The intricate rock formations and meticulously crafted architecture leave us in awe of the skill and craftsmanship possessed by those who came before us. The horizontal composition allows our eyes to wander across this vast landscape, taking in every detail etched into these weathered stones. This is a place where time seems suspended, as if frozen in its own majestic glory. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1979, this photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with its past. It invites us to explore our collective heritage and marvel at how far we have come from these ancient beginnings. With no people present within the frame, we are left alone with our thoughts amidst these remnants of an era long gone. It is through images like this that we can appreciate both our shared human history and the timeless beauty found within archaeological wonders such as Saqqara's Necropolis.
