'Cairo - home of the Arabian nights, greatest city of Africa, Egypt', 1905.Artist: Underwood & Underwood
'Cairo - home of the Arabian nights, greatest city of Africa, Egypt', 1905. 'The most prominent building before us is the superb mosque of Sultan Hasan, the finest example of Saracen architecture in Cairo, and perhaps anywhere. It was built in 1356 to 1359, and the Sultan was so delighted with it that he cut off the right hand of the architect, under the impression that it would then be impossible for the unfortunate man ever to design another, which might rival it.' Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted.
