EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Old Cairo, from the Isle of Roda" takes us back in time to 19th century Egypt. The print showcases the bustling cityscape of Old Cairo, with its intricate architecture and vibrant streets. From the vantage point on the Isle of Roda, we are treated to a panoramic view that encapsulates the essence of this ancient city. The artist, belonging to the English School, beautifully captures the spirit and charm of Old Cairo. Every detail is meticulously engraved, bringing life to each building and person depicted in this scene. The image has been digitally cleaned, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance while maintaining its original integrity. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Robert Brown's book "The World Its Cities and Peoples" published by Cassell in approximately 1885. It serves as a visual representation of Old Cairo during that era - a testament to both artistic skill and cultural documentation. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear the sounds of merchants haggling at market stalls and smell exotic spices wafting through narrow alleyways. This artwork not only offers aesthetic pleasure but also provides valuable insights into Egyptian history and culture. © Look and Learn via Bridgeman Images
