About this asset

Interior view of a historic bedroom inside the Gayer-Anderson Museum (Bayt al-Kiritliyya) in Old Cairo, featuring a four-poster canopy bed with mother-of-pearl (sadaf) inlay, hand-painted and carved wooden wall panels with Islamic floral and geometric motifs, oriental rugs, and a small inlaid side table. The room exemplifies the domestic architecture of 17th-century Cairene elite households, combining Ottoman decorative influences with traditional Egyptian craft traditions. The Gayer-Anderson Museum, named after British officer John Gayer-Anderson who restored and furnished the twin historic houses, is a key landmark in the Islamic Cairo (Al-Qahira Al-Islamiyya) district, adjacent to the Ibn Tulun Mosque.
