Bonfils foi o primeiro fotógrafo no Médio Oriente a produzir fotografias em larga escala com recurso às novas técnicas de impressão fotográfica, e em estúdio foi também o primeiro a produzir cenas coloridas em pose com recurso ao processo de Photochrom, contudo não presente neste álbum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePascal Sébah nasceu em Constantinopla e colaborou com o fotógrafo francês Henri Bechard. Depois de receber várias medalhas na Exposição Internacional de Paris abriu o seu estúdio em Istambul em 1857 produzindo fotografias comerciais e turísticas. Devido ao movimento turístico no Egipto, que pedia uma grande quantidade de souvenirs, Sébah abriu em 1873 um segundo estúdio no Cairo, tendo também exposto no mesmo ano na Exposição Otomana em Viena de Áustria. Este álbum contém unicamente imagens a preto-e-branco, no processo de albumina, captadas em grandes ângulos, mostrando os monumentos e as margens do Nilo, com pequenas aldeias e grande número de barcos à vela (ditos dahabiyas).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs fotos do Templo de Philae mostram a seu aspecto antes de ter sido inundado durante a construção da Barragem de Aswan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlgumas das fotografias mostram agricultores, condutores de cavalos e de camelos, barqueiros e mulheres.

The photos were originally taken by the great pioneer French photographer Félix Adrien Bonfils and Pascal Sébah.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFélix Adrien Bonfils produced thousands of photographs and had one of the most prolific studios in Beirut between 1860 and 1900. He was one of the first commercial photographers to produce, in large scale, images of the Middle East and to employ new methods of photographic printing. Bonfils Studio photographed posed scenes and was one of the first to use Photochrom, a new technique of photographic colour printing developed in 1880, not present in this photo album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePascal Sébah was born in Constantinople. He initially worked in collaboration with the French photographer, Henri Bechard. After receiving medals at the International Exhibition in Paris, he opened his own studio in Istanbul in 1857. Sébah primarily produced photographs for the tourist trade. By the second half of the 19th-century, tourist travel to Egypt had created strong demand for photographs as souvenirs. Sébah was amongst a group of early photographers. By 1873 Sébah opened a second studio in Cairo. He exhibited at Ottoman exhibition in Vienna, Austria, in 1873.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains wide-angle images showing the Nile banks, with small villages and numerous dahabiyas, boats, and barges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photos of the Philae Temple show its original condition before it was flooded during the construction of the Aswan Low Dam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe native people pose in front of the temples in Arabic customs with their donkeys and camels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral photos portray local farmers, horse and camel riders, boaters, women, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subtitles were printed on the devoloping process (with author’s name, cliché number, location); namely by order of display on the album:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
