Show morePhotograph album compiled by the French engineer Alfred Beneyton, who accomplished two study missions in Yemen, the first one between 1909 and 1910, and the second in 1911. A member of the French Geographical Society, his duty was to prospect for the construction of a narrow-gauge railway from Al-Hudaydah on the coast to the inland Sanaa. The line, proposed by the Ottoman Government, had to be constructed under a concession with a French company. To accomplish this task, Beneyton compiled the first regional topographic mapping. He mapped the borders of the triangular area between Taiz, Sanaa, and Al-Hudaydah. The present album is probably related to the 1911 mission, whose goal was to survey a long deep U-shaped line from Al-Hudaydah to Sanaa, running through the region of Ibb and touching the centers of Bayt al-Faqih, Zabid, Hais, Yarim, and Dhamar. Photographs depict city views, including buildings and mosques, landscapes and people, including his colleagues, the Ottoman officers accompanying them, as well as rulers (caimacans, sheiks - like Sheikh Menassar el-Kebir - and beys - like Mutessarif Izzet Bey and Habib Bey), Turkish soldieries, and members of local tribes like the Zaranig people, and Yemeni Jewish. In addition to villages, river valleys and mountain landscapes are depicted. Photographs picture mosques, city views, military camps, the burial of cholera patients, and the typical Yemeni coffee cultivation with the use of terraces etched into the mountainside.
