Pompey's Pillar, a Landmark for Sailors, and Sphinxes (Recently Unearthed), Alexandria
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Alexandria in Egypt during the 1930s. Standing tall and proud is Pompey's Pillar, an iconic Roman triumphal column erected by Emperor Diocletian in 297 AD at the Serapeum. This magnificent structure served as a significant landmark for sailors navigating the waters of the Mediterranean. Intriguingly, recently unearthed sphinxes flank either side of Pompey's Pillar, adding an air of mystery and ancient allure to this scene. These mythical creatures were revered symbols in Egyptian culture, representing wisdom and protection. The photograph captures the grandeur of this historical site against a backdrop of clear blue skies. The architectural details are meticulously preserved through cinematography techniques that bring out every intricate carving on the pillar. As we gaze upon this vintage vista frozen in time, we are transported to an era where literature and arts flourished within these ancient walls. It serves as a reminder of Egypt's rich cultural heritage deeply rooted in religion and mythology. This remarkable image from "Tour of the World" allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the significance that monuments like Pompey's Pillar hold within our human history. It invites us to explore further into unknown realms while appreciating their timeless charm.
