EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Cairo Curios; or, The Shepheards Flock" takes us back to the year 1908 in Egypt. The image, a colour lithograph by Lance Thackeray, showcases the bustling scene outside Shepheards Hotel in Cairo. The hotel was a popular gathering place for British tourists and expatriates during that time. In this snapshot of history, we see European travelers clad in Edwardian attire mingling with locals dressed in traditional Arabic garments such as fez hats and turbans. Amidst the palm trees and market stalls filled with merchandise, there is an undeniable sense of colonialism present. The British visitors appear segregated from the Egyptian population, highlighting the power dynamics of that era. The print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects upon themes of travel, cultural exchange, and imperialism. It serves as a reminder of how different cultures collided during this period while shedding light on the influence Britain had over Egypt at that time. With its rich colors and intricate details, this artwork invites viewers to delve into an era where East met West against the backdrop of one of Egypt's most iconic hotels.
