The Obelisk of Heliopolis, Egypt, 1905 - A Glimpse into Ancient Majesty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph transports us back to the ancient city of Heliopolis in Egypt. Standing tall and proud is the magnificent Obelisk of Heliopolis, a symbol of grandeur and spirituality. Crafted with remarkable precision, this obelisk once formed a pair at the entrance to a sacred temple. Captured by renowned photographers Underwood & Underwood as part of their series "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" this stereoscopic card allows us to immerse ourselves in the intricate details of this historical marvel. The texture on its surface speaks volumes about the craftsmanship that went into its creation. It's worth noting that while one obelisk now graces London, its companion was relocated to New York prior to this photograph being taken. This image serves as a reminder not only of Egypt's rich cultural heritage but also how artifacts can find new homes across continents over time. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn beyond the obelisk itself. We see people going about their daily lives amidst lush vegetation and towering trees—a testament to nature's resilience even within an urban setting. The monochrome palette adds an air of mystery and timelessness to the scene, transporting us further into ancient Egyptian history. It is through photographs like these that we can appreciate both the beauty and significance of architectural wonders from centuries past.
