EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the original site of the Egyptian Monolith, known as Cleopatra's Needle, in Alexandria. Standing tall and proud against a backdrop of ancient ruins, this monolithic structure is a testament to Egypt's rich history and architectural prowess. Before it was transported to England in the 1870s, this magnificent obelisk stood as an iconic symbol of power and grandeur in its homeland. The image captures the essence of its original location, surrounded by the mystique and allure of ancient Egypt. The photographer from Rischgitz/Getty Images has skillfully framed this portrait monument within its African context. The composition draws our attention to every intricate detail carved into the stone surface, showcasing both craftsmanship and historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art captured through lens and preserved on paper, we are reminded of Egypt's enduring legacy. It serves as a visual reminder that even when removed from its native land, Cleopatra's Needle continues to inspire awe and fascination across borders. Whether displayed proudly on a wall or carefully stored among cherished collections, this print allows us to bring a piece of history into our own homes. It invites us to explore ancient civilizations through visual storytelling while honoring their contributions to human civilization.
