EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the remarkable ancient ruins of Balbek in Syria. Taken by the talented French photographer Felix Bonfils in 1877, this tinted albumen silver print transports us back in time to a period when these colossal cyclopean walls stood tall and proud. The image captures the sheer magnitude and grandeur of these ancient structures, as they dominate the landscape with their imposing presence. The intricate details of each stone are brought to life through Bonfils' expert craftsmanship, allowing us to appreciate the architectural brilliance that went into creating such massive walls. Balbek, known for its rich history and cultural significance, is a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. These cyclopean walls were built centuries ago using enormous stones meticulously stacked together without mortar. Their longevity serves as a reminder of our ancestors' dedication to constructing enduring monuments. As we gaze upon this photo print, we cannot help but be awestruck by both its artistic beauty and historical value. It offers us a glimpse into an era long gone yet still preserved through photography. This piece not only honors Bonfils' talent but also pays homage to Syria's magnificent heritage.
