EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured print takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Cairo, Egypt. The image showcases the iconic Sphinx and Pyramid, two magnificent structures that have become symbols of Egyptian culture and history. The photograph was taken by an Egyptian photographer in the 19th century and is now part of a private collection. It was later featured in a souvenir brochure on Egypt published by The Cairo Postcard Trust around 1905. The vibrant colours added to the original image during the early 20th century bring new life to this historical view. The Sphinx, with its enigmatic expression, stands proudly next to the grand Pyramid as a testament to ancient architectural marvels. This sight has mesmerized visitors from all over the world for centuries, drawing them into the rich tapestry of African heritage. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a different era when Egypt flourished as one of Africa's main cultural hubs. The photograph captures not only these remarkable monuments but also reflects the artistic talent and skill of Egyptian photographers at that time. Through this image, we can appreciate both the beauty of Egyptian architecture and artistry while gaining insight into their fascinating history. It serves as a reminder of how these timeless works continue to inspire awe and wonder today.
