Early great excellent oil painting of western civilizations included the Egyptians and Babylonians.
The ancient city of Babylon ruled the world history in it's day just as Rome did in hers. Called "The Cradle of Civilization" it was the birthplace of our Royal modern courts and justice system based upon the legendary "Code of Hammurabi" and boasted as it's showpiece one of the seven wonders of the ancient world; The wonderful Hanging Gardens of Babylon built by Legendary King Nebucadnezzar for his wife.
The original Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, only The Great Pyramids in Egypt still stand today. Built by The Pharaoh Cheops, ( 2900-2877 B.C.) The Great huge Pyramids are the costliest monuments any man has ever built to himself, and their construction methods remain a mystery to this day.
