EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print taken by Alfieri, we are transported back to Cairo, Egypt in the 1920s. On the picturesque banks of the majestic river Nile, we see Captain R J N Watson, RN, DSO seated alongside Miss Enid Cheston. It is a snapshot frozen in time on the 14th of March in 1923. Both individuals exude an air of sophistication and elegance as they sit together on the riverbank. The man's military background is evident from his uniform, while Miss Cheston radiates beauty and grace with her fashionable attire that epitomizes the style of the era. As young Westerners exploring new horizons during their travels abroad, they find themselves immersed in a world far removed from their European roots. The shade provided by nearby trees adds a touch of tranquility to this enchanting scene. This photograph captures not only a moment between two people but also reflects upon an entire generation's thirst for adventure and exploration during this golden age of travel. It serves as a reminder that even amidst unfamiliar surroundings, love can blossom and create lasting memories. Alfieri's skillful monochrome composition transports us back to an era long gone yet forever preserved through his lens. This image stands as a testament to human curiosity and our innate desire to connect with different cultures across borders - all against the backdrop of one of history's most iconic rivers.
