EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, offering a glimpse of one of Egypt's most iconic landmarks - The Great Sphinx of Giza. From the pages of the National Encyclopaedia, published around 1890, this image beautifully captures the grandeur and mystique surrounding this ancient marvel. The Great Sphinx stands as a testament to both human ingenuity and mythical allure. Its imposing figure, with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, exudes an aura that has fascinated people for centuries. Carved out of limestone, this monumental sculpture guards over the pyramids at Giza near Cairo. As we gaze upon this architectural wonder frozen in time, we are transported to an era where ancient civilizations thrived and left behind lasting legacies. The Great Sphinx remains an enduring symbol of Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. Ken Welsh's skillful composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from its weathered features to its colossal size. This monolith is not just famous for its physical presence but also for the countless legends it has inspired throughout history. Whether you are an admirer of art or simply captivated by ancient wonders, this print serves as a reminder that some creations transcend time itself. It invites us to explore our fascination with Egypt while paying homage to those who came before us.
