This black and white photograph, "Bab Zuweila, Caïro, Egypte," by James A. Smal[?], was taken sometime between 1890 and 1920. The image captures a bustling scene in Cairo, Egypt, with a large, imposing archway in the foreground. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the city, showcasing figures in traditional clothing moving through the passageway. The work is a valuable record of architectural history and social life during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Cairo. The photograph likely served as a travel souvenir or as a document of the era.
