Inscriptions depicting the destruction inflicted on the city of Alexandria
Graffiti depicts the destruction inflicted on the city of Alexandria, specifically in Consuls Square (now known as Mansheya Square), following the British bombardment of the city in 1882. The images show the ruins of buildings after a large fire following the bombardment, documenting the early period of the British occupation. The lower inscription bears a title indicating that it is "After the Burning of Alexandria," based on drawings by the artist F. Villiers.
