Second Pyramid with Crown of Original Casing Masonry. SW from summit of the Great Pyramid Egypt Stereoview

The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the most famous and iconic landmarks in Egypt, and it has been the subject of numerous stereoviews and other photographic works. The Second Pyramid with the Crown of Original Casing Masonry is a specific stereoview that was taken from the summit of the Great Pyramid and provides a unique perspective on the surrounding landscape.

The Second Pyramid, also known as the Pyramid of Khafre, is the second largest of the three pyramids at Giza, and it is located to the southwest of the Great Pyramid. The Crown of Original Casing Masonry refers to the outer layer of smooth white limestone that originally covered the pyramid and gave it its distinctive appearance. Today, much of this outer layer has been removed, but some sections still remain at the very top of the pyramid.

The stereoview of the Second Pyramid with the Crown of Original Casing Masonry was likely taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, during the era of stereoscopic photography. Stereoviews were created by taking two nearly identical photographs simultaneously from slightly different angles and mounting them side-by-side on a card. When viewed through a stereoscope, the two images combine to create a three-dimensional effect.

The stereoview of the Second Pyramid with the Crown of Original Casing Masonry would have been a popular souvenir for tourists and travelers visiting Egypt, and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the ancient history and architecture of the region.
