EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Between Khan El-Khalil, Egypt, 1881" takes us back to the bustling streets of Cairo in the late 19th century. The artist, G Werner, beautifully captures a slice of daily life in this vibrant city. In the foreground, we see an Egyptian street seller immersed in his occupation. With a huqqa pipe resting beside him, he gazes into the distance as he tends to his trade. The aroma of tobacco fills the air as smoke gracefully swirls around him. This image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and traditions that have shaped Egypt's history. The architectural features are equally mesmerizing - an archway frames our view down a narrow lane lined with shops and market stalls. Every inch of this scene is filled with activity; men go about their business while dogs roam freely through the busy streets. Published in L'Egypte by Gaston Maspero in 1881, this engraving transports us back to a time when Khan El-Khalili bazaar was at its peak. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece capturing not only the physical landscape but also offering insight into social dynamics and livelihoods during that era. Gaston Maspero's collaboration with G Werner brings together artistry and scholarly research to create an evocative representation of street life in Cairo during the late 19th century. This print truly encapsulates Egypt's unique charm and timeless allure.
