About this asset
A man dressed in a brown galabiya (galabeya) and white head covering holds prayer beads (sebha) as he climbs stone steps toward the monumental entrance of the Mosque, Khanqah, and Madrasa of Faraj ibn Barquq, located in the Eastern Mamluk Cemetery (City of the Dead) in Cairo. The image is processed with selective color, keeping the figure in warm brown tones against a desaturated stone background. The complex, built in the early 15th century, is a major example of Mamluk religious architecture featuring carved stone facades and large wooden doors.
