EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to May 12th, 1839, where we witness a momentous event - an interview with the Viceroy of Egypt at his opulent palace in Alexandria. The image, captured by the talented artist David Roberts and featured in his renowned work "Egypt and Nubia" transports us to a time when Egypt was under the rule of Muhammad Ali Pasha. In this scene, we see a group of distinguished men engaged in deep conversation within a lavishly furnished room. Seated upon elegant divans adorned with intricate Islamic patterns, they discuss matters of great importance. The Viceroy himself is depicted as a powerful figure exuding authority and wisdom. The photograph not only showcases the grandeur of Egyptian architecture but also provides insight into the cultural and religious aspects prevalent during that era. It serves as a window into history, allowing us to glimpse into the world of Islam through its depiction of individuals deeply rooted in their faith. David Roberts' lithograph captures both the physical beauty of Alexandria's palace and the intellectual exchange taking place within its walls. This historical gem reminds us that behind every architectural masterpiece lies stories waiting to be discovered – stories that shape nations and define our understanding of their past.
