EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hieroglyphics Figure Facing Right" is a remarkable piece of art captured by John Beasly Greene in 1854. Born in France but later becoming an American, Greene had a deep fascination with Egypt and its ancient civilization. This particular image showcases his talent for capturing the intricate details of hieroglyphics. The photograph features a close-up view of a hieroglyphic figure facing right, carved into stone. The precision and clarity with which Greene has captured this ancient symbol is truly awe-inspiring. Every line and curve can be seen vividly, allowing viewers to appreciate the craftsmanship of these ancient artists. Using the calotype negative technique, Greene was able to create this salted paper print that measures approximately 28.9 x 21.1 cm (11 3/8 x 8 5/16 in. ). The monochromatic tones add depth and texture to the image, enhancing its visual impact. This print from the Liszt Collection serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact. It transports us back to ancient Egypt, offering us a glimpse into their rich culture and complex writing system. Whether you are an admirer of photography or have an interest in archaeology, this extraordinary piece will undoubtedly captivate your imagination with its timeless beauty.
