EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of the Fayum, Egypt's richest oasis, in 1902. The image showcases the stunning landscape surrounding Bahr Yussef (River Joseph), as it winds its way towards the Nile. Artists Elmer Underwood and Bert Elias Underwood expertly capture the essence of this natural wonder. The photograph transports us to a time when transportation relied heavily on waterways, with a canal cutting through the lush greenery. A magnificent palm tree stands tall against the backdrop of an azure sky, symbolizing life and prosperity in this arid region. In this snapshot of history, we catch a glimpse of women going about their daily lives along the riverbank. Their presence adds depth and humanity to this awe-inspiring vista. The foreground is adorned with various plants that thrive in this oasis, showcasing nature's resilience amidst challenging conditions. The composition exudes tranquility and serenity while offering viewers an elevated view that allows them to appreciate both small details and grand geographical features simultaneously. This stereocard from The Underwood Travel Library serves as a visual time capsule from early 20th century Middle Egypt. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection, let us marvel at how photography has preserved moments like these for generations to come.
