Show moreThis photograph of the temple called "Pharaoh's Bed" or "Trajan's Kiosk" depicts the most iconic structure within the Philae complex, a popular subject for mid- to late-19th century travel photographers. Beato depicts the Egyptian site from below so that the building emerges from a bed of palm trees and other plants in this fertile area on the Nile River. The photographer seems less interested in conveying information about the archaeological site than in offering an impression of the picturesque environment at Philae. Title from item, date devised by Library staff. Manuscript caption on the verso of the mount. The caption continues "[Philae] now known as Agilka". The print is signed "A. Beato" in the negative. On the verso of the HC.HP.2016.0053-0033b is pasted an albumen print by J. Pascal Sébah titled "Louqsor Colonnade du temple d'Amenhoteb" (Luxor, Columns of the Temple of Amenhotep III) , numbered "795" and signed in the negative "J.P.Sebah".
