Supporting material glass lantern slide from Nubia Sudan dated AD 1900s

Lantern Slide with black and white photograph of the gate of the Temple of Chonsu at Karnak.
The photograph furthermore shows the pylon visible behind the gate, in front of which there are two men (and a boy?) wearing traditional Egyptian clothing and riding donkeys. The Amun Temple is visible in the background.
The picture is a reproduction (?) of a previous picture or postcard, as it breaks before the photograph touches the passepartout frame and it bears a legend, the legible part of which reads ’64 ……… [ENTRA]NCE TO THE TEMPLE OF CHONSOU.’
Label ‘Temple of Chonson (Karnak).’
Hand written label at top spine ‘Archway of the Temple of Khonsou. Karnak’
