EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Portique d un temple a Tripetty" takes us on a visual journey to the ancient temples of Tripetty in Ceylon (now known as Sri Lanka). Created by an anonymous French artist during the 19th century, this print showcases the intricate architecture and rich historical significance of these sacred structures. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the grandeur of this temple's portico. The delicate engravings capture every minute detail, from the ornate carvings adorning the columns to the graceful arches that frame the entrance. It is evident that great care was taken to depict not only architectural accuracy but also convey a sense of awe and reverence for this religious site. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded of the spirit of exploration and curiosity that characterized this era. This print originally appeared as an illustration in Le Tour Du Monde magazine in 1869, offering readers a glimpse into far-off lands and cultures. Now digitally cleaned and preserved within private collections, this artwork continues to inspire admiration for both its artistic merit and historical value. It serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with travel, history, and discovery – reminding us that even through art alone, we can embark on incredible journeys across time and continents.
