The photographs offered here were all taken circa 1857 and most (perhaps all) were printed in 1862 for Frith’s three-volume album, Egypt, Palestine and Nubia. That album reprised many images from an earlier album that was published in 1857 under the title Egypt and Palestine Photographed and Described.
