EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Egypt, specifically to the Temple of Dakka. The ruins of the Temple of Thoth in Dakka, Nubia, stand as a testament to the rich history and architectural marvels that once graced this land. Built in the 3rd century B. C. , this temple was dedicated to Thoth, the Egyptian deity associated with wisdom and writing. The photograph itself was captured during the late 19th century, showcasing sepia tones that add an air of nostalgia and mystery. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a bygone era when North African civilizations thrived along the banks of the Nile River. The grandeur of this temple is evident even in its dilapidated state. The pylon entrance stands tall against a backdrop of desert sands, hinting at its former glory. Each weathered stone tells a story of ancient rituals and religious practices carried out within these sacred walls.
