"Abu Simbel" is a painting by the 19th-century British artist Andrew MacCallum. Created in 1890, the artwork depicts the Great Temple of Ramesses II at Abu Simbel, a site of ancient Egyptian monuments located in southern Egypt. MacCallum, known for his landscape paintings, captures the grandeur and historical significance of the temple complex, which was originally carved out of a mountainside on the west bank of the Nile River during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BCE.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of one of Egypt's most iconic archaeological sites during a period when Western interest in Egyptology was flourishing. MacCallum's attention to detail and use of light and shadow reflect the awe-inspiring nature of the Abu Simbel temples, which were rediscovered in the early 19th century after being buried under sand for centuries. His work contributes to the visual documentation of the site before the monumental effort to relocate the temples in the 1960s, an undertaking necessitated by the construction of the Aswan High Dam and the subsequent creation of Lake Nasser.

"Abu Simbel" by Andrew MacCallum serves as a historical record and an artistic interpretation, offering viewers a glimpse into the past and the enduring allure of ancient Egyptian civilization. The painting is a testament to the cross-cultural fascination with Egypt's monumental heritage and the role of art in preserving and interpreting history.
