EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic view of the first pylon and the allee (dromos) of the criosphinx at the entrance of the Temple of Amun in Luxor, Egypt. Dating back to the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, which spanned from approximately 1567-1320 BC, this ancient architectural marvel is a testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of Ancient Egypt. The temple complex, also known as Karnak or Amon Temple, holds immense cultural significance as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The image showcases intricate details such as columns adorned with hieroglyphics and symbols that tell stories from a bygone era. The criosphinxes, sphinxes with ram heads representing power and fertility, stand guard at the entrance with an air of mystery. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this scene through her lens, allowing us to appreciate both its grandeur and delicate craftsmanship. Her photograph transports us back in time to an era when pharaohs ruled over this land along the east bank of Nile. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry frozen in time, we are reminded not only of Egypt's awe-inspiring archaeological sites but also its enduring legacy that continues to captivate people around the world.
