Show moreStreet view outside the Hamidiya, a government building constructed by Othman Pasha, General Governor of Hejaz (r. 1882-1886). The subject of this photograph is probably the same building identified in the drawing of a view inside the Masjid al-Haram (plate no. 2) as ‘front-side of the Hamidiya Palace’, indicating that the building – and therefore the viewpoint in this photograph – was probably situated south of the Mosque. The photograph was likely taken by the Meccan doctor and photographer al-Sayyid ʻAbd al-Ghaffar (active in 1880s) between 1886 and 1887. Title and date from item. Plate no. 4 in Bilder-Atlas zu Mekka (Haag : Martinus Nijhoff, 1888-1889). The plate is numbered (IV) and titled in German under the print.
