EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic "Memphis - The Alabaster Sphinx" believed to have been created between 1918 and 1939 by an unknown artist. This exquisite piece of art, originating from an album of postcards, transports us back to the ancient world of Egypt. The Alabaster Sphinx stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this remarkable civilization. Thought to date back to the 18th dynasty, it represents a fusion of animalistic features with human-like qualities. Its enigmatic expression captures our imagination, leaving us in awe of its timeless beauty. Set against the backdrop of Memphis, an ancient city located in present-day Egypt, this photograph allows us a glimpse into daily life during that era. In the distance, we see people going about their day under the scorching Middle Eastern sun while camels traverse through sandy terrain. As we delve deeper into this image's details, we are reminded of influential figures such as Amenhotep II and III or Hatshepsut who once ruled over these lands. Their legacies intertwined with that of Mizraim (Egypt) continue to fascinate archaeologists and historians alike. Preserved for posterity by The Print Collector, this vintage photograph serves as a window into our past—a visual treasure trove connecting us with ancient civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
