Ibsamboul, Partie Septentrionale Du Spéos D'Hathor; Nubie, plate 108 from the album "Egypte, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie" (1852)
1849
Part of Du Camp's systematic documentation of Abu Simbel, this image captures the smaller temple dedicated to Hathor and Queen Nefertari with exceptional clarity for 1840s photography. The composition reveals both the monument's grandeur and its precarious state before 20th-century conservation efforts.
