1929 Photogravure Angkor Cambodia Ta Phrom Buddhist Temple Silk Cotton Trees

This is an original 1929 photogravure of the temple ruins of Ta Phrom in Angkor, Cambodia (Kampuchea). Ta Phrom was built in the 12th century. Silk cotton trees grow out of the ruins and create a jungle-like atmosphere. The temple was partially used during the filming of "Tomb Raider" in 2001. The photographer of this image is Dr. Martin Hürlimann of Berlin, Germany. His photographs were largely composed of cities and civilizations, and taken mostly with a Sinclair camera. Period Paper is pleased to offer an exceptional collection of historic original photogravures of the landscape, architecture, and people of Ceylon and Indochina including the present-day countries of Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos, and Yunnan, a Province of southwestern China. The actual border around the photogravure is larger than what is shown in the digital image, and each image usually has a caption in German, English, French, and Italian which will be included with the item when shipped.
