"Giza, Egypt: A Timeless Wonder Unveiled" Step back in time to the c1930s as we explore the enigmatic land of Giza, Egypt. The ancient Sphinx and recent excavations stand as a testament to the rich history that lies within these majestic grounds. With an unknown creator, this captivating image transports us to a bygone era. Moving forward to 1849/51, we encounter the awe-inspiring Pyramide de Cheops. Printed in 1852 by Aime Rochas, this depiction showcases the grandeur and magnificence of one of Egypt's most iconic structures. Its towering presence continues to captivate visitors from around the world. Intriguingly captured in 1857 by Francis Frith, Rock-Tombs and Belzonis Pyramid offer a glimpse into Gizeh's past. These remnants serve as reminders of civilizations long gone but not forgotten. The Sphynx and Great Pyramid take center stage once again in another masterpiece by Francis Frith from 1862. This timeless photograph immortalizes their splendor for generations to come. Maxime du Camp takes us on an extraordinary journey with his prints from 1849/51 showcasing Pyramide de Chephren and Le Sphynx vu de Face (The Sphinx seen from face). These images transport us back in time when these wonders were still shrouded in mystery. Henry Bacon's late 19th-early 20th-century creation titled "Spirit of the Sphinx" evokes a sense of wonderment and reverence towards this mystical creature guarding over Giza's treasures. George E. Raum's stunning photograph from 1896 captures The Sphinx at its most enchanting angle – a true marvel against the backdrop of Egyptian skies. Egyptian culture extends beyond pyramids; it encompasses vibrant flags representing national pride featured in Allen & Ginter Cigarettes' Flags of All Nations series.
