Andreas Gursky (1955) - Cheops-Pyramide in Ägypten, signiert

Andreas Gursky – “Cheops”, 2005

This impressive work by the internationally celebrated German photographer Andreas Gursky shows a monumental excerpt of the Cheops Pyramid in Egypt.

Signed at the bottom right with a black pen.

The photograph focuses exclusively on the detailed, seemingly endless structure of the stone blocks and reduces the iconic monument to its geometric, almost abstract surface.

Offset lithograph on acid-free museum board, mounted.

The work is professionally framed, under a custom-made, thick (acid-free) mat in an exclusive, handcrafted wooden frame, with PLEXIGLAS Optical HC: scratch-resistant, UV-stable and lighter than glass.
Dimensions: approx. 74 x 54 cm.

Please note:
The print was originally issued folded. The creases are still faintly visible.

Typical of Gursky’s style is the enormous level of detail and the conceptual clarity with which he documents architectural and landscape structures. In “Cheops,” history is experienced not only as a subject but as a visual texture—without romanticizing or touristy perspectives.
