[Album of Egyptian and Turkish photographs. Volume 2 / assembled by Rudolf H. and Lulu Reinhart in 1906 on their wedding trip]

Reinhart, Rudolf · 1906 · 85 pictures

This is a photograph album assembled by Rudolf and Lulu Reinhart in 1906 as a record of their wedding trip through Egypt and Turkey. The sepia prints show ancient Egyptian temple sites, columns, gateways and colossal statues, with stone walls and sunlit ruins rendered in soft tonal detail that suggests weathered sandstone and warm desert light for designers seeking antiquity textures.
