The photograph shows the Bab Al-Khalq building that hosted the Egyptian National Library and Archives from 1904 until 1971, together with the Dar Al-Athar Al-Arabiya; at the time of Sultan Hussein Kamel (d. 1917), this library was known as Sultanieh Library. Before that date, the National Library of Egypt—founded by the Khedive Isma’il Pasha in 1870 and originally designated as Kotub Khana or Khedieval Library— was housed in Darb al-Gamamiz.
