EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the electric atmosphere on the eve of King Farouk's wedding to Farida, the daughter of Yussuf Pasha Zulficar, in Cairo, Egypt, in 1938. The future king's public appearances were always met with immense enthusiasm and rejoicing from the Egyptian populace, and this event was no exception. The streets of Cairo were filled with excited crowds, many of whom had gathered to catch a glimpse of their monarch-to-be. The police, dressed in their distinctive fezes, are seen attempting to keep order and control the eager crowds. Their stern expressions and raised batons contrast sharply with the jubilant mood of the people, adding to the sense of energy and excitement in the scene. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the historical celebrations surrounding the marriage of King Farouk and Farida, an event that brought the Egyptian people together in joy and anticipation for the future. The wedding of King Farouk and Farida was a significant moment in Egyptian history, and this photograph offers a unique insight into the scenes that unfolded on the streets of Cairo during this time. The image is a testament to the deep connection between the Egyptian people and their monarchy, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and culture of Egypt.
