EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the Kings chamber in the Pyramids, showcasing a unique blend of humor and history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally featured in Mark Twain's renowned book "The Innocents Abroad" published by Chatto and Windus in 1881. In this amusing scene, tourists are depicted exploring the ancient Egyptian chamber with lighthearted curiosity. The comic undertone adds an unexpected twist to the otherwise grave atmosphere of the pyramids.
