About this asset
An ancient Egyptian bust placed on the ledge of a carved wooden mashrabiya (مشربية) window inside the Gayer-Anderson Museum in Old Cairo. The museum, a restored 17th-century Islamic house adjacent to the Ibn Tulun Mosque, is known for its collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts displayed within traditional Cairene domestic interiors. The juxtaposition of pharaonic sculpture against Islamic lattice woodwork highlights the layered cultural heritage of Cairo.
