Khaled Sayed, acclaimed photographer and documentary filmmaker, has put together a custom curated collection of photographs he personally took while strolling in old Cairo in 2013. The book is an amazing exploration of this small section in Cairo, which Sayed has visited many times over the years, examining the architecture and learning the history. He decided to include in this book an essay he wrote about the hidden-in-plain-sight treasure in the heart of this bustling modern city. This book explores some of Cairo's richest and most ancient Islamic constructions, and would be a wonderful gift for anyone who appreciates religious architecture. The photography in this book presents Cairo's Islamic past as it is revealed through an intricate patterns of shapes, textures, and colors. The 191 colored photographs in this volume take you on a tour into a history-rich street called Al-Moezz. This same street has survived for centuries through different dynasties, and through both peace and war. On this one street you will discover a mixture of architectural styles from the medieval times of the Fatimid to the Abbasid, Byzantine, and Coptic eras.
