This print takes us back to 19th century Egypt, where a group of adventurous men are embarking on a journey through the Great Pyramid at Giza. Standing tall and proud, they wear traditional Egyptian clothing complete with turbans, adding an air of mystique to their expedition. With torches held aloft, they bravely climb the ancient pyramid's passage from the second to the third gallery. The scene is filled with curiosity and excitement as these explorers delve into the depths of history. The engraving beautifully captures their sense of wonderment as they uncover the secrets hidden within this architectural marvel. Each step taken in this pyramid represents a step closer to unraveling its mysteries. Luigi Mayer's artwork transports us to a time when archeology was still in its infancy, yet already capturing imaginations worldwide. This illustration and painting perfectly encapsulate the spirit of adventure that characterized this era. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, we can't help but feel drawn into their world - a world where ancient wonders were waiting to be discovered.
