Show morePhotographs show two young water carriers and one blind beggar. Both these subjects were very common in Orientalism painting. Alexandre Brignoli was an Italian professional photographer active in Cairo between 1860 and 1870. His studio was based at the Hôtel du Commerce and his production almost exclusively consists of Orientalist portraits. His work seemed to be more aimed at artists than almost any other commercial work in the Middle East and North Africa.
