Description:

The size refers to each of the individual prints. The mount board is 15-1/2 x 20-1/4 inches, and both photos are mounted side by side on the recto. These are prints that were made outside of the normal H. de Fonteny edition, probably for Teynard himself or for an assistant, and hence very rare. They were the only known ethnographic images made by Teynard. Title in French in pencil on recto of mount. See: Howe, Felix Teynard, Calotypes of Egypt, p.72-73, pl.135; Howe & Sinsheimer, Excursions Along the Nile: The Photographic Discovery of Egypt, pl.59.
