EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Brook in Tozeur Oasis" takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of North Africa in the early 20th century. The image, captured by a European photographer from the 19th century, transports us to a tranquil oasis nestled within the arid region of Tozeur. The brook depicted in this picture serves as a lifeline amidst the desert's harshness, offering respite and sustenance to both nature and weary travelers. Its gentle flow creates an oasis of lush greenery that contrasts beautifully with the surrounding golden sands. Published as an illustration for "Picturesque North Africa" in 1925, this gravure-printed photograph showcases not only the natural beauty but also highlights the artistic prowess of its creator. The credit goes to Lehnert and Landrock, renowned photographers based in Cairo at that time. As we gaze upon this timeless piece of art, we are reminded of how photography can transport us across continents and centuries. It allows us to appreciate distant lands through someone else's lens while evoking our own sense of wanderlust. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been made available for public viewing thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts. As it falls out of copyright due to its age, it continues to inspire awe and admiration among those who have had the privilege to behold it.
