Large Speos - View taken from the Sand Slope (Temple of Ramesses II), Abu Simbel

Félix Teynard

Cleveland Museum of Art

Large rocky cliff face carved with statues and hieroglyphics, on right; water and mountains on left. The cliff face has a steep slope covered in sand at its base. Two large statues are carved into the cliff face, one beside the other. The statues appear to be of people with elaborate headdresses. Above the statues, there are multiple rows of hieroglyphics carved into the cliff face. In the background, there is a body of water and mountains on the horizon. The sky is clear. The image is sepia-toned.
