20. | ![]() | Unidentified photographer n.d. Tourists climbing the Pyramid of Cheops Albumen print 9.6`Æ x 7.8 in (244 mm x 200 mm) Paul Frecker Paul Frecker provides the following comments: "As a result of the organized tours introduced in the latter half of the nineteenth century, Egypt enjoyed enormously popularity as a holiday destination, and photographers were quick to target this market. This is one of the conventional views of the Great Pyramid that quickly became an established staple of the tourist market. People looking at the photograph could immediately identify the monument solely by its diagonal edge. More importantly, the anecdotal character of the image, which clearly emphasized the local guides and tourists climbing up the pyramid, made it the perfect souvenir. Photographs like this one were not only mementos of the highlights of their Grand Tour, but also proof to their friends and relations of how strenuous and exciting the trip had been. The other market for such images was the "armchair traveller". Félix Bonfils in the introduction to his 1878 photograph album Egypt and Nubia wrote that "[t[hose who are prevented from travelling to these sites due to illness, lack of funds, or their domestic situations, have the possibility to go at their leisure, at low cost and with little effort, to those countries which many have reached only at the risk of their lives." |

Cheops is farthest from the camera & is the largest. Kephren is centre & next in size & the third & smallest is Mycerinus. During the 'Pyramid' age no less than 70 pyramids in all were erected. They are simply colossal masses of masonry that house the small tomb chambers of the respective Pharaohs who built them. For life to be eternal in the next world, it was imperative that the Pharaoh's mummy be in existence & so these great structures were built to house the mummy-for ever. These three, perhaps with one or two exceptions are the best specimens remaining of that civilization(?) that raised them nearly 6,000 years ago!". |

Early in its history, the photographer Frank Mason Good traveled to the Near East under commission from Francis Frith's firm and produced many of Frith's negatives. The present outstanding view of Sphinx and great pyramid seems to antedate Frith's first expeditions but bears an extremely low negative number in the Frith company catalog, hence the likelihood of Good's authorship. Good was noted for his adherence to the relatively difficult wet-plate collodion negative on aesthetic grounds, even as wet collodion was supplanted by less demanding photographic processes. |
