EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1896, capturing the awe-inspiring sight of Cheops, the greatest of all pyramids in Egypt. From The Underwood Travel Library - Egypt collection, this image showcases the grandeur and majesty of one of the world's most iconic landmarks. In this monochrome scene, we see four people standing near the pyramid's base. Among them is a distinguished Egyptian man mounted on a camel, exuding an air of authority as he gazes upon his country's ancient wonder. The other individuals appear to be tourists or explorers marveling at the colossal structure before them. The landscape surrounding Cheops is barren yet hauntingly beautiful, with sand dunes stretching into infinity. This stereoscopic photograph captures every intricate detail, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in its rich history and architectural brilliance. As we delve into this 19th-century snapshot from The Print Collector archives, it becomes evident that this image holds immense cultural significance. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance while inviting us to ponder over the mysteries that lie within these ancient structures. With its timeless appeal and historical value, this print transports us back in time when Egypt was known as Mizraim and Khufu ruled over Giza with his magnificent creation. A true treasure for any enthusiast of travel photography or those seeking a glimpse into our shared heritage.
