EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of The New Museum of Egyptian Antiquities at Cairo, which opened its doors on 14 November. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection and showcases the museum's principal facade. The photograph offers a glimpse into the interior of the museum, specifically Lord Kitchener opening the Great Central Gallery. Ministers and dignitaries can be seen gathered in what appears to be the Gallery of Honour, surrounded by priceless Egyptian antiquities. Lord Cromer, suite members, and even the Khedive himself are present for this momentous occasion. The composition highlights not only the architectural beauty of the atrium but also provides insight into Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to ancient Egypt's influence on both Africa and North Africa. This image is reminiscent of a time when photography was still emerging as an art form. Its inclusion in The Illustrated London News further emphasizes its significance during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical snapshot through Fine Art Finder, allowing viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and documentary nature. Whether one is fascinated by ancient civilizations or captivated by early photographic techniques, this print offers a window into Egypt's past that continues to inspire awe today.
