EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the ancient wonders of Egypt. The image showcases the magnificent Ile de Fileh (Philae) temple complex, with its striking Premier Pylone standing tall against the backdrop of the Nile River. Taken from the eastern colonnade platform, this view offers a unique perspective on one of Egypt's most important archaeological sites. The photograph captures not only the architectural grandeur of Philae but also highlights its serene island location. The landscape surrounding the temple is breathtakingly beautiful, transporting us to a time when ancient Egyptians worshipped their gods in these sacred spaces. Felix Teynard's skillful use of salted paper printing brings out exquisite details and textures in this heritage art piece. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of France's fascination with Egyptian culture during that era. Today, as it did then, Philae continues to attract tourists from around the world who seek to explore its rich history and immerse themselves in its religious significance. This print serves as a testament to both Felix Teynard's artistic talent and his dedication to capturing Egypt's cultural heritage through photography. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this timeless masterpiece allows us to travel back in time and experience firsthand the allure and majesty of ancient Egypt.
