"Drawing on deeds relating to Yuhanna al-Armani and other members of his social network, Magdi Guirguis offers a fascinating glimpse into the ways of life of urban dwellers in eighteenth century Cairo, at a time when a civilian elite had reached a high level of prominence and wealth. Illustrated with 28 full-color reproductions of al-Armani's icons, An Armenian Artist in Ottoman Egypt is a rich and compelling window on Cairene social history that will interest students and scholars of art history, Coptic studies, or Ottoman history."--Jacket.
