Louis Haghe

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white illustration of a temple interior with large stone columns and carvings. The columns have a lotus flower design at the top and are carved with people and hieroglyphics. The floor is made of stone and there are people standing around. The ceiling is also made of stone and has a decorative design. The overall atmosphere suggests an ancient Egyptian temple. The image is sepia-toned. There are several columns visible, some with carvings on them. The columns appear to be supporting the ceiling. The image depicts a view under a grand portico.
