"The Seven Wonders of the World: Phare De L'egypte" by Georg Balthasar Probst is a fascinating piece of historical artwork dating back to the 18th Century. It forms part of a larger series by Probst which depicts the Seven Wonders of the world, a list traditionally thought to have been compiled by ancient Greek historians which enumerates the most impressive man-made structures of the ancient.

In this specific print, Probst illustrates the infamous Lighthouse of Alexandria, known to the Greeks as the Pharos, which served as inspiration for this artwork's French title Phare De L'egypte. The Lighthouse, one of the longest standing Wonders until it was destroyed by a series of earthquakes, was renowned for its impressive height and the legend of its mysterious, beaconing light.

Georg Balthasar Probst (1732–1801) was a master printmaker and publisher based in Augsburg, Germany. He was renowned for his vedute, a highly detailed and accurate style of landscape or cityscape illustration. His treatment of the Lighthouse in Phare De L'egypte showcases the meticulous attention to detail he was known for.

The complete series showcases Probst's dedication to depicting historical and architectural accuracy, blending artistic, architectural, and historical knowledge. While time has seen the gradual demise of most of the original Seven Wonders, they live on in part through such artistic echoes as Probst's series, offering a glimpse into our past and the grandeur of ancient civilization.
