EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1920s, capturing a rare moment in time when the Pyramids of Giza were surrounded by floodwaters in Cairo, Egypt. The image is taken from the publication "In the Land of the Pharaohs" by Lehnert & Landrock, showcasing their exceptional talent for documenting Egyptian culture. Amidst this natural phenomenon, we see a family navigating through the inundated landscape on a rowing boat. Their determined expressions reveal their resilience as they adapt to this temporary transformation of their surroundings. Towering palm trees and other lush vegetation peek out from beneath the water's surface, creating an ethereal atmosphere that contrasts with the ancient pyramids rising majestically in the background. The presence of boats scattered across this flooded scene highlights how transportation has been altered by nature's force. It serves as a reminder that even iconic landmarks like these pyramids are not immune to change and adaptation. This photograph encapsulates both human ingenuity and Mother Nature's power, offering viewers a glimpse into life during an extraordinary event. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, it evokes feelings of awe and wonder at Egypt's rich history intertwined with its ever-changing environment.
