EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of Egypt's ancient city, Memphis. Taken in the late 19th century by the talented Zangali brothers, this print showcases a stunning statue of Memphis nestled amidst a lush palm grove. The composition is a true testament to the Zangali brothers' skill in capturing both natural and man-made wonders. The statue itself exudes an air of mystery and grandeur, standing tall against the backdrop of towering palm trees. Its intricate details and weathered appearance hint at its rich history, transporting viewers back to a time when pharaohs ruled over this majestic land. The juxtaposition of the ancient statue with the vibrant greenery of the palm grove creates a sense of harmony between nature and human creation. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these remnants from antiquity continue to coexist harmoniously with their surroundings. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every nuance in this remarkable scene. His careful attention to lighting and composition allows us to appreciate not only the subject but also its context within Egyptian archaeology. This print is not just an image; it is a portal into another era. It invites us to explore Egypt's rich cultural heritage while marveling at its enduring beauty.
