EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, capturing the grandeur of Egypt's Upper Egypt region. The image showcases the luxurious Basma Hotel swimming pool in Aswan, a true oasis amidst the desert landscape. The pool is surrounded by an exquisite Victorian palace, exuding elegance and opulence. Its architecture reflects both Middle Eastern and African influences, creating a unique blend of styles that perfectly complements its surroundings. This magnificent structure stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of North Africa. Intriguingly, this photograph also captures two different eras within one frame - the old Cataract Hotel can be seen alongside its extension, known as the New Cataract Wing. These buildings were later transformed into what is now known as Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Hotel. The outdoor pool itself offers respite from the scorching African sun while providing guests with breathtaking views of Aswan's natural beauty. It serves as a focal point for relaxation and leisure for visitors seeking refuge from their explorations through ancient Egyptian wonders. Photographer Jane Sweeney has masterfully captured this historical gem with her lens, transporting us back to an era where luxury met tradition in perfect harmony. Her skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also feel immersed in the vibrant atmosphere of Upper Egypt during this bygone era.
