EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Egypt, where skilled sculptors are seen meticulously carving and polishing a stone statue. The French School's engraving from the 19th century beautifully captures the essence of these talented craftsmen at work. The image showcases the dedication and precision required in creating such intricate pieces of art. Each stroke of their tools reveals the mastery possessed by these ancient Egyptian sculptors, as they bring life to an otherwise lifeless stone. Their hands move with grace and expertise, chiseling away excess material while paying careful attention to every detail. This historical snapshot offers a glimpse into the world of ancient Egypt, shedding light on their rich artistic heritage. It is a testament to their advanced techniques and unwavering commitment to perfection that has stood the test of time. Displayed within a private collection, this particular print was featured in Emile Soldi's renowned publication "Les Arts Meconnus - Les Nouveaux Musees du Trocadero" in Paris during 1881. Its inclusion in this esteemed book further solidifies its significance as an important piece of art history. As we admire this photograph today, we can't help but marvel at the talent and craftsmanship displayed by these anonymous sculptors who have left behind an enduring legacy for generations to come.
