Egypt and Nubia, Volume II: Karnak

Louis Haghe

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sepia-toned illustration of ancient stone ruins. A tall, thin column stands on the right side, with a wide, flat top. In front of the column, several large stones are scattered on the ground, some stacked and others lying loose. To the left, a curved line of stones resembling a fallen wall or structure is visible. Behind the column, a large stone structure with intricate carvings rises into the air, with another similar structure behind it. The background features a cloudy sky and a rocky hillside. The illustration is titled "Karnak" at the bottom.
