Another title that I have used for this painting is "4000 B.C." This is the Temple of Karnak in Egypt. A very limited palette was used to create the majesty of this monumental temple built in ancient times.

Thank you very much for your comment. It always amazes me when I realize that  this Temple was built more than 4000 years ago. The ancient Egyptians created some of the most unbelievable works of art known to man.  Their methods remain a mystery and that fact keeps us in awe of what they have done.
