In 1838-1840 David Roberts traveled throughout Egypt capturing life and beauty in paint. His lithographs are still available today. But what he captured was what all the sites looked like 180 years ago. Before sand was removed from the sphinx and before more aging faded the amazing colors.
Notice the color of the Philea Temple in 1830's
Notice the sand burying the sphinx up to his neck.
You really have to Tour Egypt With Me!
