EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, showcases The Thames Embankment in London with the iconic Cleopatra's Needle obelisk standing proudly in the foreground. The red granite monument, which dates back to the 8th Dynasty of ancient Egypt, was brought to London in 1878. It is flanked by two bronze statues of sphinxs, adding to its grandeur. The River Thames, a major body of water flowing through the heart of London, adds a serene backdrop to the scene. A double-decker tram can be seen making its way along the embankment, offering a glimpse into the transportation methods of the era. The obelisk, originally erected by Pharaoh Thutmose III in Luxor, Egypt, around 1450 BC, is a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange between Egypt and England during this time. The photograph also captures the presence of a policeman, keeping a watchful eye on the bustling scene. The image transports us back to a bygone era, offering a fascinating glimpse into London's history and the iconic landmarks that continue to captivate visitors to this day.
