Abstract

In this wonderful image by Scottish artist David Roberts, the ‘Pyramids of Geezeh’ dwarf the well-known Great Sphinx. No matter what the perspective, big or small, the complex of monuments found on the Giza Plateau, some 13 kilometres from Cairo, is rightly one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
