EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Cairo Season; the famous Shepheards Hotel showing the terrace. February 1925" takes us back to a bygone era of elegance and grandeur. The image captures the essence of society in the early 20th century, showcasing a scene filled with sophistication and style. In this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to the renowned Shepheards Hotel in Cairo during its prime. The hotel's terrace is prominently featured, adorned with palms that add an exotic touch to the already opulent setting. It is February 1925, a time when Europe's elite flocked to Egypt for what was known as "The Cairo Season". A well-dressed man stands on the terrace, exuding confidence and charm against this backdrop of luxury. In keeping with the fashion trends of the roaring twenties, his attire reflects impeccable taste and refinement. Adding further allure to this snapshot from history are several automobiles parked along the street adjacent to Shepheards Hotel. These classic cars serve as symbols of progress and modernity in an ever-evolving world. Alfieri's expert eye has captured not just a building or a moment frozen in time but also an entire atmosphere steeped in nostalgia. This photograph encapsulates both architectural beauty and societal aspirations within its frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of European photography from nearly a century ago, we can't help but be drawn into its allure—a testament to Alfieri's skillful artistry behind the lens.
