Looking south over the Theban plain and Temples of Medinet Habu, Egypt, 1905. Artist: Underwood & Underwood
Looking south over the Theban plain and Temples of Medinet Habu, Egypt, 1905. Here at our feet are a few of the tombs [of Medinet Habu]. You observe that the face of the cliff has been smoothed and so cut as to produce a perpendicular wall with a court in front. In the middle of the perpendicular wall is a door leading to the chapel-chamber of the tomb which is excavated in the solid rock. Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient wonders of Egypt in 1905. The image, captured by Underwood & Underwood, showcases a breathtaking view looking south over the Theban plain and Temples of Medinet Habu. As we gaze upon this arid landscape, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent cliff face that dominates the scene. The photographer's keen eye allows us to appreciate the intricate details of these tombs carved into the solid rock. We can observe how the face of the cliff has been skillfully smoothed and cut, creating a striking perpendicular wall with a courtyard in front. In the center of this wall lies a door leading to the chapel-chamber within. Stereoscopic photography adds depth and dimensionality to this monochrome masterpiece, transporting us directly into this ancient world. It is fascinating to imagine ourselves sitting amidst these historical marvels, surrounded by both natural beauty and human craftsmanship. As we explore every inch of this photograph, we cannot help but feel awe-inspired by Egypt's rich religious heritage. This image serves as a reminder of how religion played an integral role in shaping Egyptian society throughout history. Through this remarkable snapshot from "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" texted by James H Breasted, we are transported across time and space to witness firsthand one of Egypt's most significant archaeological sites – Medinet Habu.
