EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the majestic land of Egypt during the 19th century. The image showcases the iconic Third Pyramid, a sight that has fascinated explorers and historians for centuries. Captured by an English photographer, this historical snapshot is part of a private collection, offering a glimpse into the past. It was originally featured as an illustration in George Ch Dovas' "Souvenir of Egypt" published in 1898. The Third Pyramid stands tall against the desert backdrop, its grandeur and mystery evident even in monochrome. Built during the Fourth Dynasty by King Mycerinus around 3630 BC, it reaches an impressive height of 215 feet. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are transported to ancient times when pharaohs ruled over vast empires and pyramids were built as eternal resting places for these powerful leaders. The intricate architecture and sheer size of the pyramid leave us in awe of human ingenuity and craftsmanship. This image serves as a reminder of Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. It invites us to explore further into this fascinating civilization that continues to captivate our imaginations today.
