EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Tempio d Iside in Pompei, Italy. Taken by an Italian photographer in the 19th century, it showcases the historic beauty of this ancient temple dedicated to the goddess Isis. The image is part of a private collection and was later used as an illustration for a booklet showcasing views of Napoli around 1900. Its inclusion in this publication highlights its significance as a prominent landmark during that time. The photograph evokes a sense of history and transports viewers back to early twentieth-century Italy. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists within Europe, specifically in Naples, Campania. Pompei itself holds great historical importance due to its tragic fate - it was buried under volcanic ash during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The presence of this volcano adds another layer of intrigue to the photo, symbolizing both destruction and resilience. Displayed against a backdrop devoid of color, this monochromatic image enhances our perception and appreciation for details such as architectural elements and textures. It invites us to explore not only with our eyes but also with our senses - imagining what life might have been like within these ancient walls centuries ago. Overall, this remarkable photograph offers us a glimpse into Italy's past while reminding us of the enduring power and allure found within historical artifacts like Pompei's Tempio d Iside.
