EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the ancient city of Thebes in Egypt, circa 1905. Captured by Underwood & Underwood, it showcases the magnificent obelisk of Rameses II standing proudly in front of Luxor Temple. This monumental structure, along with its counterpart which now graces the Place de la Concorde in Paris, was erected by the great pharaoh himself. The image is part of a series called "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" accompanied by text written by James H. Breasted. It offers a detailed glimpse into the architectural marvels and rich history of this African country. In this monochrome scene, we witness the grandeur and majesty that once characterized Luxor Temple before time took its toll on these ancient ruins. The stereoscopic photography technique employed here adds depth and dimension to our perception, making us feel as if we are truly present at this sacred site. As we admire this print from The Print Collector collection, let us reflect upon Egypt's religious significance and its enduring legacy as an epicenter for spirituality throughout centuries. Rameses II, also known as Ramses the Great or Ramesses II, left an indelible mark on Egyptian history through his architectural achievements like this temple complex. Through this photograph's lens, we can almost hear whispers from a distant past echoing through time - tales of gods worshipped fervently within these hallowed walls and rituals performed under Rameses' watchful gaze.
