Henri BECHARD (1869-1890) Cairo water carriers at rest, players, Egypt, 1870 2 albumen prints 27 x 21 cm Henri Béchard was a French photographer active in Egypt in the 1870s and 1880s. His studio was set up in Cairo's Ezbekia Garden district in 1869. His work is distinguished by the superb quality of his prints and the generally spectacular presentation of sites such as the pyramids. His studies of people and scenes of daily life are most often taken from unusual angles, in an attempt to adapt to the narrow, confined spaces, showing a very personal involvement in the life and customs of the country.
