EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the early 20th century and offers a glimpse into the world of colonial exploration. In this vibrant color lithograph by Lance Thackeray, we see a group of intrepid climbers dressed in traditional Edwardian attire as they ascend one of Egypt's iconic pyramids. The image captures the essence of adventure and curiosity that characterized the era of British colonialism. These tourists, accompanied by their dragoman (local guide), are eager to conquer new heights and experience the wonders of ancient Egypt firsthand. With determination etched on their faces, they push themselves physically and mentally to reach the pinnacle. The juxtaposition between these English climbers in their formal costumes against the backdrop of Egyptian culture adds an intriguing layer to this photograph. It serves as a reminder not only of Britain's influence during its imperialistic reign but also highlights the fascination with exotic lands that permeated Western society at that time. As we gaze upon "The Climbers" our imagination takes flight, envisioning what it must have been like for these adventurous souls exploring foreign lands over a century ago. This image encapsulates both the spirit of travel and discovery while raising questions about cultural exchange and power dynamics inherent in colonialist endeavors. Through this beautifully preserved piece from The Stapleton Collection, Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into history and contemplate how perceptions have evolved since then.
