The originality of this book lies in the confrontation between the historical images of nineteenth-century photographer Felix Bonfils and the contemporary images of Serge Negre. In this process of combining images, which Negre calls “chrono-photo-confusion,” the romantic and aesthetic attraction of historic places that are undeniable witnesses of the past give way to his own more modern approach that focuses on the inhabitants who make up the country today. The comparison of the photographs from the two periods and the way they are intimately linked highlight the historic, social and political continuity of Palestine.
Author Biography

Born in 1951, Serge NEGRE is a French photographer and founder of the Espace Photographique Arthur Batut, and has displayed more than one hundred photographic works. He is involved in research of 19th century photography, especially his forerunners who photographed the Middle East. He has participated in Polar expeditions with Dr. Etienne, as a specialist in satellite communications and kite aerial photography. He has been involved in the Middle East since 1972, first as a nurse for refugees in southern Lebanon and since then in Palestine. To this day, he continues to deepen and enrich his knowledge of Palestinian society. He is Research Associate for the Photographic Library of the Ecole Biblique et archéologique Française de Jerusalem.
