This black and white photograph, taken by Jean Pascal Sébah between 1888 and 1895, captures a picturesque view of the Great Pyramids of Giza, as seen from the banks of the Nile River in Egypt. The image showcases the grandeur of the ancient Egyptian monument, with the three pyramids dominating the horizon. Three figures are depicted standing in the shallow water along the river bank, adding a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. This photograph is a prime example of Sébah's renowned photographic documentation of Egypt and its archaeological sites, highlighting the country's historical significance. The image is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
