Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Englantilaisen runoilijan Shelleyn sonettia „Ozymandias" inspiroi pihamaalla maassa lojuva jättiläiskolossi, joka kuvasi Ramses II:ta. Kolossi oli aikoinaan noin 19 metriä korkea ja lähes 1000 tonnin painoinen, pää yksinään 2,5 metriä pitkä.
Kohokohdat: Kolossin pää, noin 2,5 metriä korkea ja 7 tonnin painoinen, makaa edelleen maassa, ja Shelley käytti tätä päätä sonettinsa muusana. Tähtitieteellinen kattokoristelu kuvaa taivaan jumalatarta Nutia, ja lähes 3000 vuotta vanha maalaus on pysynyt täysin ehjänä.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- In the early morning, from 8 to 9 o'clock, the light falls on the top of the pylon, while the reflection creates the best contrast.
- Hat, sunscreen, and water in the bag, since there is hardly any shade in the courtyard.
- The shadows on the ground spread across the courtyard in the autumn light, and the morning gives a golden light.
- The fallen colossus looks its best in the autumn light, when the light and the reflection on its upper part are beautiful to see.
