Egypt and Nubia, Volume II: Excavated Temples of Abo Simble, Nubia
The image depicts a black and white drawing of a rocky cliffside with four large statues carved into it. The cliffside is made up of layers of rock, and the statues are positioned in a row, with the two on the outside being larger than the two in the middle. The statues have Egyptian-style features, with pharaoh-like headpieces. In front of the cliffside, there is a body of water with a boat sailing on it. The boat has a triangular sail and appears to be moving towards the right side of the image. There are people standing on the shore and on the boat. The background of the image shows a cloudy sky and a mountain range in the distance. At the bottom of the image, there is text that reads "THE TEMPLES OF ABOO-SIMBEL, FROM THE NILE".
