EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us on a journey back in time to the great Egyptian pyramid. The image showcases four remarkable discoveries that shed light on the ancient civilization's ingenuity and craftsmanship. At first glance, we are drawn to the original casing stone from the north side of the pyramid. Its weathered surface tells tales of centuries past, reminding us of the grandeur and mystery surrounding this architectural marvel. Next, our eyes gravitate towards a perfectly sculpted granite ball weighing 1 lb. 3 oz. , seemingly defying gravity with its flawless symmetry. This enigmatic artifact raises questions about its purpose and significance within the pyramid's intricate design. Adjacent to it lies a piece of cedar, intriguingly resembling a measure or tool used by ancient Egyptians for precise calculations. Its presence hints at their advanced knowledge in mathematics and engineering. Lastly, we encounter a bronze instrument with remnants of its wooden handle still clinging onto it. This relic offers glimpses into their sophisticated metalworking techniques and serves as evidence of their mastery over various materials. The engraving technique employed in this 1872 image adds an air of authenticity, transporting us further into history's embrace. With its retro style reminiscent of Victorian arts and culture, this vintage print captures not only these extraordinary discoveries but also evokes our fascination with archaeology itself – forever seeking to unravel Egypt's secrets hidden within these majestic pyramids.
