EDITORS COMMENTS
translated to "Scenes of Gezireh Avenue during the Nile Flood; The Northeastern African Region," is a captivating photograph taken in 1914. The image, created by an unknown artist, was originally published in the renowned French geographical magazine "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree." The photograph depicts a breathtaking scene of the Nile Valley during the annual flooding, a natural phenomenon that once sustained the fertility of the land in Egypt and other parts of North Africa. The Nile River, a vital geographical feature and the lifeline of ancient civilizations, is shown in all its might, with its murky waters covering the streets and avenues of Gezireh, a district located on an island in the heart of Cairo. The photograph captures the essence of the flooded landscape, with palm trees and plants reflecting in the water, creating a mirror-like effect. The trees, standing tall and strong amidst the flooded surroundings, add a sense of tranquility to the otherwise chaotic scene. The image also showcases the resilience of the people and the natural world, as they adapt to the annual flooding and the changing weather conditions. The photograph is a testament to the beauty and power of nature, and the unique relationship between humans and their environment. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the history and culture of the Northeastern African region during the early 20th century. The photograph's timeless quality and the mystery surrounding its creator only add to its allure, making it a fascinating addition to any collection of historical images.
