EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Ergett el Krone, a mimosa-acacia tree found in Nubia and Abyssinia. The image is taken from James Bruce's renowned book "Journey in Nubia and Abyssinia undertaken to discover the sources of the Nile during the years 1768 a 1772" published in Paris in 1790. The delicate branches of this magnificent tree are adorned with vibrant yellow blossoms, creating a striking contrast against the arid landscape. As one gazes at this enchanting scene, they can almost feel the warm breeze gently rustling through the leaves, carrying with it a subtle fragrance that fills the air. James Bruce's expedition was an extraordinary endeavor to uncover the origins of one of Africa's most iconic rivers - The Nile. His meticulous documentation not only shed light on geographical discoveries but also provided valuable insights into African flora and fauna. Leonard de Selva skillfully captures this botanical wonder through his lens, preserving its intricate details for generations to come. This photograph serves as a testament to nature's resilience and diversity even in harsh environments like Nubia and Abyssinia. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate both Bruce's pioneering spirit and de Selva's artistic vision. Their collective efforts allow us to experience firsthand the awe-inspiring wonders that lie within our natural world.
