EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the ancient wonders of the Pyramids of Meroe, situated on the majestic Nile River. The image showcases the ruins and remains of these remarkable structures, which were once part of General Gordon's route. Dating back to February 23rd, 1884, this illustration was featured in The Illustrated London News. The pyramids stand tall against a backdrop of sandy dunes, their weathered exteriors revealing centuries of history and stories untold. A group of Nubian locals can be seen nearby, adding a sense of scale to these monumental tombs. Their presence reminds us that these pyramids served as burial sites for royalty and nobility during the Kushite era. A camel leisurely grazes amidst the crumbling ruins, symbolizing both endurance and resilience. This scene transports us to North Africa, where remnants from an ancient civilization still hold an air of mystery. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection, we are reminded not only of its artistic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship while offering a glimpse into Sudanese culture and heritage.
