EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the awe-inspiring Round Temple, also known as the Temple of Venus, located in Baalbek, Lebanon. Baalbek, an ancient city in the Beqaa Valley, is renowned for its grand Roman and Phoenician ruins. The Round Temple, a marvel of ancient architecture, is believed to have been dedicated to the goddess Venus. The photograph, with its rich, colored hues, transports us back in time, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The intricate stonework and the temple's perfect circular shape are evident, as are the remnants of the massive Corinthian columns that once supported the temple's roof. The picturesque setting, with the temple nestled amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery, adds to its allure. The photochrom process, a popular method for producing colored photographs during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, brings the historical site to life in a vivid and striking way. The warm tones and attention to detail in this photograph make it a valuable historical record and a beautiful work of art. The Round Temple at Baalbek, with its mysterious origins and impressive architecture, continues to captivate visitors and historians alike. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and grandeur of this ancient site in all its splendor.
