EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Island of Philae in 1853-54, as captured by the talented American photographer John Beasley Greene. The ancient Egyptian archaeological site is beautifully showcased in this image, revealing its rich historical and geographical features. The Island of Philae holds immense religious significance, housing the majestic Philae Temple dedicated to the goddess Isis. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a time when Egypt's heritage was being unveiled through archeological exploration. Greene's mastery of photography is evident in his use of salted paper print from a paper negative technique. The monochromatic tones add depth and texture to the landscape, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail with clarity. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, it becomes apparent that Greene's work not only captures a specific location but also encapsulates an era. This photograph serves as a testament to both ancient Egypt's grandeur and America's contribution to documenting world history through art. Now preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this remarkable piece stands as a reminder of our shared human heritage across borders and centuries. It invites us to explore the mysteries hidden within these sacred grounds while appreciating the beauty captured by John Beasley Greene's lens.
