EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back in time to ancient Egypt. Standing on the higher roof of the central aisle of the Ramesseum, we are granted a breathtaking view of Thebes and its iconic colossi of Memnon. As our eyes wander across this monochrome landscape, we can't help but marvel at the grandeur that once was. The colossal statues lie before us, their massive forms stretching out against a plain backdrop. A lone man stands amidst this awe-inspiring scene, his figure adding scale to these ancient wonders. In contrast to their stone immobility, nature thrives around them - a solitary tree reaching towards the heavens. Captured through stereoscopic photography by Underwood & Underwood for their series "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" this image transports us to an era long gone. It is a testament to human ingenuity and architectural prowess that continues to captivate audiences even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable print by Keystone with text by James H Breasted, we are reminded of Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. From Luxor's majestic Karnak temple complex to these magnificent monuments at Thebes – every detail tells a story waiting to be discovered. Let this photograph serve as an invitation for exploration into ancient civilizations and an appreciation for mankind's enduring legacy in shaping our world.
