The Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha or Alabaster Mosque (Arabic: مسجد محمد علي, Turkish: Mehmet Ali Paşa Camii) is a mosque situated in the Citadel of Cairo in Egypt and commissioned by Muhammad Ali Pasha between 1830 and 1848.

 

Situated on the summit of the citadel, this Ottoman mosque, the largest to be built in the first half of the 19th century, is, with its animated silhouette and twin minarets, the most visible mosque in Cairo. The mosque was built in memory of Tusun Pasha, Muhammad Ali's oldest son, who died in 1816.

 

This mosque, along with the citadel, is one of the landmarks and tourist attractions of Cairo and is one of the first features to be seen when approaching the city from no matter which side.

Don't know how I ended up with this, nor even really what it is but I've had it for many years because it seems too important to just toss.

 

If anyone has any clues, please do share. Thanks! :)

 

This is an unflashed version, a flashed shot of this is in the previous picture in my stream.

 

UPDATE:

Okay, I've learned a few things (Wikipedia is amazing for accumulating the wealth of the world's knowledge) and this is from the second round of the games which started in 1965 and have run since then about every 4 years in relation to the Olympics. The reason Lagos was the second round after 8 years is that the ones scheduled for Mali were postponed due to a military coup in that country.

 

There were many celebrated names in attendance including Abebe Bikila, Pelé, Muhammad Ali, and Jesse Owens, invited for the opening ceremonies.

 

This appears to be one of the bronze medals of which there were some 126 awarded that year.

 

Nigeria as the host country was 2nd overall in the medal totals behind Egypt.

 

The organization of the Pan-American games were started from the success of these games.

All these (and more) need new homes as I'm going to a different country for an extended stay soon so send me a Flickr Mail message (access through the arrow that appears near my profile photo when mousing over it) if interested.

Step 1 - Find an old pencil sketch of Muhammad Ali that your dad did back in the 70's in your auntie’s kitchen and decide that you want to do your own version of it. Attempt to find the reference photograph that he must have used but fail. It turns out Ali has been photographed thousands of times over the years and the internet is not particularly helpful when you can’t be very specific. No problem. You’ll just have to make the detail up yourself.

Icons Remix, was opened on Mother's Day 2010 by the controversial Mr. Brainwash. Mr. Brainwash reopened the original massively hyped pop art exhibition, Icons, in a 15,000 square foot space at 415 West 13th Street. Mr. Brainwash (MBW), a pseudonym for Thierry Guetta, was supposedly a French documentarian and videographer turned street and pop artist, whose story is told through Banksy's 2010 film, Exit Through the Gift Shop.

Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.; January 17, 1942) is a retired American boxer and three-time World Heavyweight Champion, who is widely considered one of the greatest heavyweight championship boxers of all time. As an amateur, he won a gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. After turning professional, he went on to become the first boxer to win the lineal heavyweight championship three times. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rematch is a 2022 “hijacked” canvas in which Mr. Brainwash paints a modern pop-culture scene directly onto a vintage 19th-century genre painting. The foreground reproduces Muhammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston, drawn from Neil Leifer’s iconic photograph of their May 25, 1965 rematch in Lewiston, Maine—the moment immediately after the disputed “Phantom Punch.” Behind them, a quiet European village scene populated by women at a well remains largely indifferent.

 

Mr. Brainwash Art Museum opened in December 2022 in Beverly Hills and is dedicated to the work of French-born, Los Angeles–based street artist Thierry Guetta, known professionally as Mr. Brainwash. Located in the former Paley Center for Media building at 465 North Beverly Drive, designed by Richard Meier, the museum has been transformed into a large-scale, immersive exhibition space presenting graffiti-inflected paintings, pop-culture mashups, oversized sculptures, neon text, and murals from the artist first introduced to a wider audience through Banksy’s 2010 documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop.
