This book reveals the unbroken fascination of Egypt with the aid of unique historical photographs dating from 1923 to 1930. They come from the archive of photographer Rudolf Lehnert (1878-1948) and his business partner Ernst Landrock (1878-1966), who ran a photo studio and a small press from 1904 to 1939 in Tunis and Cairo. These renowned photos are published here in book form mostly for the first time.
