Undoubtedly, Mohamed Nagy, the great artist, is one of the staunch artists who contributed much to laying down the foundations of the modern Egyptian photography art.
He produced an array of terrific paintings some of which go back to 1907, as he was just a 19-year-old boy.
He was the first Egyptian to study the academic art in the Italian capital of art, Florence. The most striking evidence to Nagy's unique style is that his paintings were displayed side by side with that of most renowned French artists in 1920.
