EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Tomb of Sheykh Abd-El-Deym" takes us back to the early 20th century in Cairo, Egypt. The artist behind this masterpiece is Walter Frederick Roofe Tyndale, who beautifully captures the essence of daily life in this bustling city. In this scene, a busy street unfolds before our eyes as people go about their day. Men clad in traditional attire navigate through the crowded lane while others seek refuge from the scorching sun under vibrant turquoise awnings. Amidst the lively atmosphere, a man stands near a book stall, engrossed in literature that transports him to another world. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the magnificent tomb or mausoleum of Sheykh Abd-El-Deym. Its grand facade stands tall and proud against the backdrop of city life. As we gaze at it, we can't help but contemplate its significance - a symbol of death and burial juxtaposed with the vibrancy and energy surrounding it. Walter Tyndale's watercolour technique brings out every intricate detail with precision and skill. Through his artistry, he invites us to explore not only physical locations but also deeper concepts such as mortality and cultural heritage. "The Tomb of Sheykh Abd-El-Deym" serves as an invaluable historical document that allows us to step into Cairo's past and appreciate its rich tapestry woven by its people and landmarks alike.
