I know what the great pyramids were supposed to look like from reading about it. They were covered in polished white stone and had some sort of caps that were gold mixed with silver. One smaller pyramid was supposed to have been pink. Nice. Just now I felt that I would love to see a picture of how they looked like. Surely there must e thousands of people out there that like pyramids, have an artistic streak or are good with PSPro to give me something to look at. A short video would even be better.
Imagine my amazement when after entering many different searches, there were only two half arsed images showing what I wanted to see. One that looked like someone's not very good painting and the other looked like bad CGI.
Am I stupid? I tried:
'What did the pyramids originally look like'
'What did the pyramids look like new'
'What did the pyramids look like when they were built'
I expected 1000s of images, from naive paintings and new age stuff, to elaborate computer graphics.
All I want is to get a feel of what it was like when they were new and shiny, but whilst everyone is going on about who build them or how, nobody seems interested in the end product.
That was a long winded question to ask if anyone knows any good links to the original pyramid look?
I mean the fact that there is hardly anything out there is in itself quite a mystery. Unless I am useless at finding stuff...
