EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking view south from the Step Pyramid to the Dashur necropolis in Saqqara, Egypt. The majestic landscape is dominated by a series of awe-inspiring pyramids, with the farthest one being none other than the renowned Bent Pyramid of King Sneferu. As I gaze upon this image, I am transported back in time to an era filled with mystery and grandeur. The significance of this scene lies in its association with death and burial rituals. The stone structures stand as solemn mausoleums, honoring the pharaohs who once ruled over this ancient land. Their vibrant colors have faded over centuries but still evoke a sense of regality and power. With each step leading up to these monumental architectural features, one can't help but feel a deep reverence for those who were laid to rest within their sacred chambers. This panorama serves as a testament to Egypt's rich history and showcases its enduring legacy. As tourists flock to witness these wonders firsthand, archaeologists continue their tireless efforts in unraveling the secrets that lie beneath these colossal structures. Saqqara remains an archaeological site of great importance, offering invaluable insights into our past. In this photograph captured by CM Dixon near Cairo, we are reminded not only of Egypt's glorious past but also of its present-day beauty and allure. It symbolizes our fascination with royalty, monuments that transcend time itself, and our unending quest for knowledge about civilizations long gone.
