About the piece
Painted around 1880 by Camiel Wauters, this work exemplifies the atmospheric sensitivity of late 19th-century landscape painting. The composition uses a muted, tonalist palette to depict the historic city of Cairo, with the pale shapes of buildings and the triangular sail of a felucca mirrored in the still water below.
