Description

Excerpt from Cleopatra's Needle: A History of the London Obelisk, With an Exposition of the Hieroglyphics In the march of civilisation, Egypt took the lead of all the nations of the earth. The Nile Valley is a vast museum of Egyptian antiquities, and in this sunny vale search must be made for the germs of classical art. The London Obelisk is interesting to the architect as a specimen of the masonry Of a people accounted as the great builders of the Ancient World. It is interesting to the antiquary as setting forth the workmanship of artists who lived in the dim twilight Of antiquity. It is interesting to the Christian because this same venerable monument was known to Moses and the Children of Israel during their sojourn in the land Of Goshen.
