EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Obelisk of Heliopolis in Egypt, taken around 1890 by Newton & Co. Standing as the oldest surviving Ancient Egyptian obelisk, this awe-inspiring monument was erected by Pharaoh Senusret I during the 12th Dynasty. Senusret I ruled from 1971 to 1926 BC, and this obelisk was one of a pair created to commemorate his Heb Sed or 30th Jubilee. The image beautifully captures the grandeur of this ancient structure against a backdrop of lush trees and bustling city life. The intricate hieroglyphics adorning its surface tell stories of an ancient civilization that thrived thousands of years ago. As we gaze upon this remarkable archaeological site, it serves as a poignant reminder of Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. The concept behind its construction was rooted in commemoration, honoring significant milestones in the pharaoh's reign. Preserved through time, this monochrome photograph allows us to travel back to the nineteenth century when explorers marveled at these wonders. It is a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship that continues to captivate audiences today. Thanks to Heritage Images' preservation efforts, we can appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also gain insight into how people experienced them over a hundred years ago. This print offers us an opportunity for reflection on our shared past while inspiring future generations with tales from ancient civilizations like never before imagined.
