Dicono che la Sfinge,faccia la guardia alla piramide di Chefren, E' la più antica statua monumentale d'Egitto. Gli archeologi la collocano intorno al 2500 a.c. e ne attribuiscono l'ispirazione a Chefren. È alta 20 m e ha il corpo allungato, le zampe protese e un copricapo reale. Fu scolpita in un affioramento di roccia naturale sulla cui base furono aggiunti alcuni blocchi di pietra in occasione delle numerose ristrutturazioni, a partire dalla XVIII dinastia. Sono tanti i racconti sul naso della Sfinge di Giza, secondo le quali la sua distruzione avvenne o per un colpo sparato da un mamelucco, un ottomano o un francese. In realtà andò perso prima del XV secolo. In origine la Sfinge aveva anche una finta barba stilizzata, simbolo di regalità, ma anch'essa scomparve. Un pezzo di roccia prelevato dal luogo in cui essa sorgeva sulla sabbia oggi è conservato nel British Museum di Londra. Critiche, commenti e consigli sempre super graditi. Grazie.

Hello Annamaria, I like the idea, a personal interpretation of a well-known and super-photographed site, an image that brings us an unusual sight, a sight that many would have avoided, but that you made interesting to the repetitive texture that forms the first plane accompanying the eye of the observer to the landscape of the pyramids.
The title is perfectly in tune with the content.
Intelligent image. ;-)
A good greeting. Ivan

Fantastic place visited this day, amazingly fantastic this night, with the spectacle of lights projected into the pyramids and the Sphinx.
Great shooting Annamaria.
