Photograph of four tourists at Karnak, along with an Egyptian man who may be their guide. They are grouped in front of ruins at the Karnak temple complex. Compared to the previous photograph, one of the women has been replaced by a man in a pith helmet, and the other woman is now holding a palm frond. The individuals are identified by initials-- HKF, MF, DKF, JMF. Based on other photos and the passenger list for this trip, these may be Mr. H.K. Frost, Miles Forwood and his wife Dora Kerr Forwood, and Mr. J.M. Frost. From an album of photos from a 1908 voyage to the Mediterranean on the CARPATHIA.
