EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Ripon Falls, where the mighty Nile River exits Lake Victoria. Taken from "Tour du Monde" in the first week of 1864, this image is a testament to the timeless beauty of African landscapes. The unknown artist behind this 19th-century engraving skillfully depicts the grandeur of Ripon Falls. The cascading waterfall creates a mesmerizing spectacle as it merges with the tranquil waters of Lake Victoria. The sheer power and force of nature are palpable in every detail captured by Leonard de Selva's lens. As one gazes at this remarkable scene, they can almost hear the roar of water crashing against rocks and feel its refreshing mist on their skin. This photograph transports viewers to an era long gone, yet still preserved within its frame. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this image holds historical significance as well. It offers a glimpse into Egypt's rich heritage and showcases how integral the Nile River was to ancient Egyptian civilization. Now part of a private collection, this extraordinary artwork serves as a reminder that nature's wonders transcend time and place. It invites us to appreciate and protect our planet's natural treasures for generations to come.
