Storm from the North on the River Nile, Egypt, 1898
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black and white lithograph by Christian Wilhelm Allers, we are transported back to the late 19th century on the mighty River Nile. The scene depicts a fierce storm brewing as dark clouds loom overhead. A felucca, a traditional Egyptian sailboat, valiantly battles against rough waters while palm trees sway in the powerful wind. Allers' artwork is part of his renowned book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), where he skillfully combines his writing with stunning illustrations. This particular print showcases his mastery in capturing both nature's fury and man's resilience amidst adversity. The image evokes a sense of awe at the sheer power of nature and its impact on transportation along this historic river. It serves as a reminder that even in an era without modern technology, people navigated through challenging weather conditions to traverse these waters. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we can almost feel the gusts of wind and hear the crashing waves. It transports us to a time long gone but preserved through artistry like Allers'. This lithograph not only captures a moment in history but also highlights Egypt's unique geography and its reliance on water transport for centuries. Through Allers' lens, we witness an extraordinary blend of literature, geography, and artistic expression that immerses us into Egypt's stormy past along one of its most iconic natural features - The Nile.
