Médînet-Habou (Thèbes). Constructions antérieures — Entrée principale [Foremost structures, main entrance, Medinet Habu]. Photographer: Teynard, Félix
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Archaeological Photography
Close view looking towards the gateway in the first pylon of the Temple of Rameses III, with a screen and two composite columns in the foreground. With accompanying note: 'Tous les pylônes sont composés d’une porte ayant, de chaque côté un massif pyramidal. A Médînet-Habou, les massifs pyramidaux sont remplacés par des murs de 1m,50 d’épaisseur avec retour aux extrémités, de manière à figurer un pylône pour l’observateur placé à l’extérieur, tout en diminuant considérablement la quantité de matériaux employés. Ce genre de construction, qu’on ne retrouve dans aucun des anciens monuments, suffirait pour assigner une date récente à ce pylône, qui a 38 mètres à la base et 13m,70 de hauteur; son épaisseur simulée est de 6m,60. Les colonnes des propylées ont 1m,50 de diamètre; leur hauteur totale est de 11m,25, dont 1m,50 pour les chapiteaux. Le pylône et toutes ses dépendances sont de grès, excepté la porte et les montants à côté des colonnes, où la finesse des hiéroglyphes fait facilement reconnaître le granit.'
