Nothing to Say Again

 

David Roberts - Pyramids of Giza

Nothing to say again, so here is a pretty picture.

Those pyramids look as if they are made of White toblerone. I have to say that they don't look much like the pyramids look in real life but perhaps it is an imaginative reconstruction of how they might have looked when they were being covered in white marble, which of course has now long gone. (although I wonder where it went)....

Jenny, Roberts was paining in the area in 1838/9 and the pictures reflect that. I suspect they are also 'cleaned up' to sell to the public. Disapearing marble in Egypt? Mostly in Europe now.
