photographer : Felix Teynard. 1851-1852.
When French civil engineer Félix Teynard traveled to Egypt in 1851 to photograph along the Nile River Valley, he did so with few photographic predecessors. Equipped with a large-format camera and a supply of paper for negatives, Teynard created the entirety of his photographic oeuvre in 1851 and 1852.
Despite these obstacles, Teynard produced a body of work distinguished by its modernity.
