Médinet-Habou, Galerie du Palais de Ramsès-Méiamoun; Thèbes, plate 52 from the album "Egypte, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie" (1852)
1849
Documenting the elaborate galleries of Ramesses III's mortuary temple, this photograph exemplifies Du Camp's methodical approach to recording Egypt's ancient monuments. The image preserves details of hieroglyphic reliefs and architectural elements that were already showing signs of deterioration in the mid-19th century.
