EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient city of Dougga, showcasing its majestic Capitol. Taken by a European photographer in the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. The photograph was originally published as an illustration for "Picturesque North Africa" in 1925, with credits given to Lehnert and Landrock from Cairo. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and mystery as we gaze upon the ruins of Dougga's Capitol. The intricate details captured by the photographer highlight the architectural splendor that once stood proudly in this North African city. Despite being taken almost a century ago, the image remains timeless, transporting us to another era. As we delve into history through this photograph, it becomes evident why Dougga is considered one of Tunisia's most important archaeological sites. The crumbling columns and weathered stones tell stories of past civilizations that thrived within these walls. Through this monochromatic lens, we are reminded of both the beauty and fragility of human creations throughout time. It serves as a testament to our collective heritage and invites us to ponder on how societies rise and fall over centuries. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate.
