Although the elder Douglas is typically the only one credited for the photographs, it is uncertain who may have photographed which scenes. The younger James Douglas seems to indicate that he participated, though not with any particular view to developing his skill with the camera. He writes in the accompanying text to the plate Philæ (Colonnade): “Photography being quite a subordinate object with us, we never left the beaten tract nor did we ever delay an hour for the mere purpose of taking a view.” Some of the views are indeed a bit blurry, with evidence of the camera having been bumped mid-exposure in at least one instance. Regardless, the Douglases must have been generally pleased with their images in order to print text plates to accompany their photographs.

Original price: none Advertised in: none Dr. James Douglas and his son, James Douglas, only prepared copies of their book as gifts for friends and colleagues. The earliest of these books was printed immediately following their return from the trip to Egypt and Nubia in 1862, but they appear to have continued to make new copies for at least 10-15 years after (with some evidence of a change in paper manufacture making the later dates consistent with a later printing, as documented by Jennifer Graham in her 2014 MA thesis for Ryerson University). Although the elder Douglas is typically the only one credited for the photographs, it is uncertain who may have photographed which scenes. The younger James Douglas seems to indicate that he participated, though not with any particular view to developing his skill with the camera. He writes in the accompanying text to the plate Philæ (Colonnade): “Photography being quite a subordinate object with us, we never left the beaten tract nor did we ever delay an hour for the mere purpose of taking a view.” Some of the views are indeed a bit blurry, with evidence of the camera having been bumped mid-exposure in at least one instance.

Russell and Landry received copies of the Photographic Views Taken in Egypt.
