EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of Egypt's iconic pyramids, set against a backdrop of lush palm trees. Taken in the late 19th century by the talented Zangali brothers, this image transports us back to a bygone era when these ancient wonders stood tall amidst a serene palm grove. The composition is strikingly balanced, with the majestic pyramids dominating the foreground while the delicate palms gracefully frame them from behind. The contrast between man-made structures and nature's abundant greenery creates a harmonious juxtaposition that speaks to both human achievement and Mother Earth's resilience. As we gaze upon this scene, our imagination takes flight. We can almost feel the warm breeze rustling through the palm fronds and hear whispers of ancient secrets carried on its wings. The Nile River flows peacefully nearby, reflecting not only centuries of history but also providing essential life-giving sustenance to this vibrant oasis. Photographer Leonard de Selva has skillfully captured this moment in time, preserving it for future generations to admire and appreciate. Through his lens, he invites us to marvel at Egypt's rich cultural heritage and contemplate our place within it. This print serves as a testament to both artistic vision and historical documentation. It reminds us that even as time marches forward relentlessly, there are certain places on Earth that will forever hold their mystique – like this palm grove at the foot of Egypt's magnificent pyramids.
