EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Citadel and Cairo from the East" takes us back to the late 19th century in Egypt. The artist behind this masterpiece is Robert George Talbot Kelly, known for his remarkable watercolour landscapes. The image showcases a breathtaking cityscape of Cairo at dusk, with its iconic citadel standing proudly against the vibrant yellow sky. As we explore this scene, our eyes are drawn to the bustling activity on the outskirts of the city. Men and women can be seen strolling along, their silhouettes adding depth to the composition. A donkey gracefully carries its load while an Egyptian lady walks beside it, creating a sense of harmony between humans and animals in this urban environment. Kelly's attention to detail allows us to appreciate both architectural marvels and natural beauty simultaneously. The fortification of the citadel stands tall as a symbol of strength and history amidst modern civilization. This juxtaposition captures a unique moment in time when tradition meets progress. "The Citadel and Cairo from the East" transports us back over a century ago, offering glimpses into life during that era. It serves as a testament to Kelly's artistic prowess in capturing not only physical landscapes but also cultural narratives within his work.
