EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Kasr-el-nil Bridge in Cairo, Egypt, taken in 1895. The bridge, built between 1869 and 1871, spans over the majestic River Nile and is adorned with exquisite ornamental stone lions. This remarkable piece of architecture stands as a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The photograph captures the bustling cityscape surrounding the bridge, depicting a snapshot of life in late 19th century Cairo. Palm trees sway gently in the background, adding an exotic touch to this urban landscape. People can be seen strolling along the bridge, enjoying its grandeur while taking in breathtaking views of the river. The monochrome aesthetic enhances both the timeless beauty of this historical landmark and its surroundings. The contrast between light and shadow creates a dramatic effect that draws viewers into this enchanting scene from another era. Published by George Newnes Ltd in London as part of their renowned collection "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs" this print serves as a valuable documentation of global landmarks during that time period. As we admire this image today, it allows us to appreciate not only architectural marvels but also how cities evolve over time while still preserving their cultural heritage.
