One of seven albums of photographs assembled by John Downes Rochfort chronicling his travels in North America, Europe and Africa between 1867 and 1883. This album is entitled 'Algiers Egypt &c 1882-3' and is a curious mixture of photographs of North African tourist subjects and views of Egyptian battlefields.
