EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic ruins of the Temple of the Sun in Jerash, Jordan. Taken in the late 19th century, it offers a glimpse into the ancient Roman city's rich history and architectural grandeur. The image showcases the remnants of this once magnificent temple, which stood as a testament to Roman engineering and design. The imposing stone columns rise proudly against the backdrop of a clear sky, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The sepia tones lend an air of nostalgia to this archaeological treasure. Jerash itself is steeped in history, dating back to Iron Age settlements before becoming part of the Roman Empire during its prime. This particular temple is believed to have been built during either the 1st or 2nd century AD, serving as a place for worship dedicated to sun deities. As we gaze upon this print from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back in time - imagining bustling streets filled with Romans going about their daily lives amidst these remarkable structures. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these ruins continue to captivate our imagination and inspire us with their enduring beauty.
