Elements and principles found in the great sphinx of giza

Francis Frith a (British, was born on  1822–1898)

When Francis Frith made  this photograph, the sphinx  at Giza was buried almost to  its neck in desert sand. He  may or may not have been  aware that beneath that  sand lay the 150-foot-long  body of a lion. Frith perfectly centered the Great Pyramid  and the Great Sphinx in the  composition, including a few  figures in the foreground to  provide a sense of scale.

The pyramids and sphinx at  Giza, widely published now, were an astounding site to any viewer in the 1800s. Shortly after  the development of photography, people began to dream about the landscape, architecture, and  people of far-away places—all of which seemed exotic and romantic. All along the Nile, Frith  made 16-by-20-inch mammoth-plate images, which he subsequently compiled and sold in  enormous leather-bound albums.
