EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Queen Farida of Egypt (1921-1988) makes her first public appearance at the French exhibition in Cairo, following her honeymoon in 1938. The young queen, dressed in an elegant white gown and adorned with the jewels of her new title, exudes confidence and grace as she greets the crowds. Farida, born Fuad II's sister, became queen consort upon her marriage to King Farouk I of Egypt on February 25, 1938. The union was a significant moment in Egyptian history, as it marked the end of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty and the beginning of the Muhammad Ali-Saud Dynasty. The French exhibition in Cairo, held in 1938, was an important cultural event that showcased the artistic and industrial achievements of France. The presence of the newly crowned queen at the opening ceremony was a testament to Egypt's close ties with France and the international community. As the first queen consort of Egypt in over 30 years, Farida faced great expectations from the Egyptian people. She was known for her intelligence, beauty, and charitable work, and quickly became a beloved figure in Egyptian society. This photograph captures a pivotal moment in Egyptian history, as the young queen makes her first public appearance and begins her reign as queen consort of Egypt. The elegant setting of the French exhibition and the warm reception from the crowds serve as a reminder of the cultural and diplomatic significance of this moment in time. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange that took place between Egypt and the international community during the 20th century. It is a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of Queen Farida and her role in shaping Egypt's modern history.
