Daguerreotype of the Great Pyramid taken by Frédéric Goupil-Fesquet on 20 November 1839
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: On November 20, Goupil-Fesquet captured another iconic monument, the Pyramid of Cheops, working from outside a gate that surrounded the complex. The scene, which is known today only through a subsequent engraving, is bucolic, with a saddled camel and three people quietly lounging in the foreground, the pyramid rising behind it in brilliant light. The exposure took 15 minutes. |
