The focal point of this image is none other than the magnificent Gazirah Palace, standing proudly amidst its urban surroundings. Captured between 1870 and 1880, this photograph showcases the timeless beauty of Egyptian architecture. The grandeur of Gazirah Palace is enhanced by the presence of a charming street lamp that illuminates its exterior. This juxtaposition between modernity and tradition adds an intriguing element to the composition. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to the meticulously crafted furnishings for civic spaces adorning the palace's entrance. Every architectural detail has been thoughtfully captured by Bonfils' lens - from intricate arches and decorative sections to majestic columns that exude strength and elegance.
