In 1856 Frith set out on the first of three trips to the Middle East, launching a highly successful career as a photographer and publisher of foreign topographic views. It is miraculous that he succeeded in making monumental and theatrical views such as this one, for the relatively new glass negatives required him to transport his enormous camera, sheets of glass, and bottles of chemicals through the desert and to coat, expose, and develop his plates before the collodion emulsion dried. "With the thermometer at 110\u00b0 in my tent," wrote Frith, "the collodion actually boiled when poured upon the glass plate."Free picture The Great Pyramid and The Great Sphinx integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
