English: “A CORNER OF THE KHEDIVE’S PALACE.
In front are two veiled figures in the ordinary costume of the poor Egyptian woman. The man in the foreground is wearing a burnûs over his galabeah. But it is much more usual among the poor Cairenes to wear a jacket over the galabeah like the boy and man to his right.”
In front two veiled women are walking. Behind them men standing and sitting on the street. In the background is a building with iron fence. Black-and-white photograph.
