The clock tower was a gift to Mohammad 'Ali from Louis Philippe of France in 1845. Because the mosque was still being built, it was placed in the Mohammad 'Ali Palace in Shubra. Sa‘id Pasha moved the clock tower to the mosque in 1855. Although renovations have just been completed (2022), it still does not work!
In return, Muhammad 'Ali gave Louis Philippe one of the obelisks of Ramses II from in front of the pylon of the Temple of Luxor, which now stands in the Place de la Concorde in Paris.

The image of Muhammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston is one of the most well know boxing, and arguably sports photographs of all time.
It was on this day; May 25, 1965, that Ali and Liston had a rematch. As we all know, Ali won with a knock out in the first round!
The original image was taken by Neil Leifer and our Troopers hope they have done his photograph justice.
*Update...Trooper vs. Trooper recently placed second @ the 4th Annual Juried Show of Photography & New Media at Visual Arts Mississauga and was featured in the Mississauga News.
Enjoy!

The courtyard has a northern and southern entrance from the mosque. In the middle of the courtyard is a marble ablution fountain with a carved wooden roof on columns. The fountain is lavishly decorated in a style similar to that of the sabil-kuttab facing the madrasa of al-Nasir on Mu'izz street. That structure was built by Ismail Pasha in 1828. The sabil and the upper part of the courtyard facade are decorated with small oval wall paintings on which Mediterranean landscapes are represented

The mosque, the largest such structure built during the first half of the 19th century, is more impressive at a distance than close up. Though there its artistic merit is questionable, it is an unparalleled contribution to the skyline of Cairo, visible high atop the Citadel grounds. Indeed, its great dome and towering minarets give the Citadel a romantic, oriental quality that makes up for any shortcomings in its detail. It is almost certainly the first feature that catches ones eyes at the fortress

The courtyard, as at the mosques of Sulayman Pasha and Malika Safiyya, is surrounded by rounded arcades carrying small domes. These domes are supported by large, though relatively simple marble columns. The courtyard is almost square, measuring 54 by 53 meters. The courtyard has a northern and southern entrance from the mosque. In the middle of the courtyard is a marble ablution fountain with a carved wooden roof on columns.

With stage 2 of my overcomplicated 3-in-1 Muhammad Ali canvas completed I was all set to remove the tape to be left with my stage 3 final mashup image when I had an idea. Since removing the tape itself is pretty darn satisfying and you don't quite know what you'll get until it's all removed then perhaps that could be considered a unique selling point. I know it would be for me.
So, for a limited time, this canvas is being offered for sale as is - for £150 (plus p&p). You could then remove all or none of the tape. Up to you. This time will be limited to an unspecified time and will be based on how long I can refrain from doing it myself. I reckon I can last at least 24 hours...
Made using the power of imagination, stencils, spray paint, tape and a sketch of my dad's of Ali from some time in the 70's on a 60x60cm canvas. Drop us a line if you need to peel that tape off yourself...
Cheers

Al-Rifa‘i (Ahmad ibn ʽAli al-Rifaʽi) 1119-1183, was an Iraqi Sunni Muslim preacher, ascetic, mystic, jurist, and theologian, known for being the eponymous founder of the Rifaʽi tariqa (Sufi order) of Islam. Although this mosque is named after him, the shrine contains the burials of his grandson, 'Ali Abu Shibbak al-Rifai and another Sufi mystic, 'Abd Allah al-Ansari.
The Mosque of al-Rifa'i replaced a zawiya (shrine) of the sufi saint, al-Rifa'i. It is also the royal mausoleum of Muhammad 'Ali's family, in addition to Hosh al-Basha (the Courtyard of the Pasha), in the Southern Cemetery.
Patron: commissioned by Hoshiyar Qadin (Hoşyar Kadın) ?-1885, consort to Ibrahim Pasha & Walida Pasha to their son, Isma'il Pasha.
Original architect: Hussein Pasha Fahmi (a distant cousin of Muhammad 'Ali), Minister of Awqaf, who died in 1880 when work stopped.
Construction Supervisor: Khalil Agha chief eunuch & director of estates for Isma'il Pasha.
Completed: work resumed in 1905 when the Khedive, Abbas II, ordered its completion. Work was supervised by architect Max Herz (Herz Miksa, Hungarian) 1856-1919, head of the Comité de Conservation des Monuments de l'Art Arabe.

The Citadel is a fortified enclosure begun by Salah al-Din in 1176 AD on an outcrop of the Muqattam Hills as part of a large defensive system to protect both Cairo to the north and Fustat to the southwest. It was the center of Egyptian government and residence of its rulers until 1874, when Khedive Isma'il moved to 'Abdin Palace. It is still occupied by the military today, but is now open as a tourist attraction comprising, notably, the National Military Museum, the 14th century Mosque of al-Nasir Muhammad, and the 19th century Mosque of Muhammad Ali which commands a dominant position on Cairo's skyline

My paper dolls and I say goodbye to the Champ. I thought she was appropriate because of her '70s look. I remember the way my brothers would run around saying "Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee" and "I'm a bad man" when we were kids at the time. This quote however really struck me today. Peace and Love.
