Légende

'The famous colonnade in the great Temple at Karnak, Thebes, Egypt', 1905. 'There are in all 132 of these columns, built of drum-shaped sections and arranged in sixteen rows. It is sixty-five feet up to the top of those spreading capitals, and it would take six men with outstretched arms to span one of the sculptured shafts. In 1899 eleven columns in this hall fell owing to age and insecurity the foundations.' Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted.
