EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases The Egyptian House, a Grade I listed building located in the heart of Penzance, Cornwall, England. Dating back to the early 19th century, this architectural marvel is a stunning example of Egyptian Revival style. The intricately designed facade transports viewers to ancient Egypt with its ornate details, including the majestic royal crest adorned with a lion and unicorn, flanked by two towering columns. The Egyptian House stands proudly on a quiet street, its grandeur undiminished by the passage of time. The pavement in front of the building is lined with cobblestones, adding to the old-world charm of the scene. A lone bird perched on a nearby railing seems to pause in admiration of the magnificent structure. The Egyptian Revival style was popular during the 19th century, reflecting the fascination with Egyptology and ancient Egyptian culture. The Egyptian House in Penzance is a testament to this architectural movement, with its intricate designs, bold colors, and grandeur. This photograph, taken in the 1970s, captures the building in its full glory, inviting us to appreciate the rich history and beauty of this unique architectural gem.
