Three photos by the French photographer with a studio in the garden of Ezbekia in Cairo, H. Béchard (fl. 1869-late 1880s). "His work is distinguished by the superb quality of his prints and the generally spectacular presentation of even the most common sites ... His cityscapes and urban scenes were mostly taken from unusual angles in an attempt to cope with narrow and confined spaces" (Perez).
