EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of The Nile Expedition, a historic moment frozen in time. Created by Amedee Forestier and published in The Illustrated London News on January 10,1885, this engraving transports us to the treacherous rock of Abou Seir. In this scene, we witness the military entrance into the dangerous part of Hannek Cataract along the River Nile. The view is both awe-inspiring and daunting as soldiers are seen repairing a whale boat amidst the rugged terrain. Every detail tells a story - from Koboddy to Abou Fatmeh, Nubia to Hajar El Batn. The image not only showcases the bravery and determination of those involved in the expedition but also highlights their resourcefulness in navigating such challenging waters. It serves as a testament to human resilience and exploration. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time; hearing whispers of history echoing through each brushstroke. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this significant piece within their private collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate. Let this engraving be a reminder that even amidst adversity, mankind's thirst for discovery knows no bounds.
