Painting Description
Nubie, Abousembil, Speos De Phre Colosse Meridional Vu De Profil is a notable photograph captured by the French photographer Félix Teynard in the mid-19th century. Teynard, an engineer by profession, embarked on a photographic expedition to Egypt and Nubia between 1851 and 1852, during which he documented various ancient monuments and landscapes. His work is considered significant in the field of early photography and Egyptology, providing a visual record of historical sites before the advent of modern archaeological practices and extensive tourism.
This particular photograph, whose title translates to "Nubia, Abu Simbel, Southern Colossus of the Temple of Pharaoh Viewed in Profile," depicts one of the colossal statues at the entrance of the Great Temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel. The temple, carved out of a mountainside in southern Egypt, is renowned for its four massive statues of Ramses II, each standing approximately 20 meters tall. Teynard's image captures the grandeur and intricate details of the southernmost statue, emphasizing the scale and craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian monumental art.
Teynard's work is characterized by its technical proficiency and artistic composition, which were remarkable achievements given the limitations of early photographic equipment and processes. His use of the calotype process, a technique involving paper negatives, allowed for a level of detail and tonal range that was highly valued by contemporary audiences and remains appreciated by modern historians and art enthusiasts.
The photograph is part of Teynard's larger body of work, which was published in the album "Égypte et Nubie" in 1858. This collection includes over 160 plates and is considered one of the most important photographic records of Egypt and Nubia from the 19th century. Teynard's images not only serve as valuable historical documents but also as artistic interpretations of ancient wonders, bridging the gap between archaeology and visual art.
