Show moreViews of Palestine, mostly taken in Jerusalem, including market scenes, animals (camels, donkeys), encampments and buildings. There are portraits of children, women, religious figures, Arabs and Jewish types, young and old men performing their daily life activities and Westerns, possibly Nadar's traveling companions, yet to be identified. One photograph of Mar Saba Monaster in Hebron. Photographs are not staged, people are not orientalist figures, but on the contrary, they feature directly, looking into the camera. Whether they are caught working or posing for the photographer, their attitude shows a natural curiosity. In the fall of 1892, Paul Nadar traveled to Palestine to cover the inauguration of the railway connecting Jerusalem to Jaffa, together with the archaeologist Albert Tissandier, Mr. Sauvage, mining engineer, and Mr. Geiser, director of the Polytechnic School of Zurich. His work on the railroad line lasted only a few days, but he took advantage of his trip to go on the traditional "Grand Tour" visiting Alexandria, Cairo, Beirut, Tyr and Zion, and Damascus, as well as stopping in Greece and Constantinople on his way home. He used a Kodak N ° 2 camera which produces circular format views, as during his trip to Turkestan in 1890. Jerusalem [?]. Hebron. Mar Saba Monastery. Street scenes. Shops. Hose rider. Jewish types.
