Street Scene in Cairo: The Lantern Maker's Courtship (by William Holman Hunt) Jigsaw Puzzle
Puzzle Description
An online puzzle inspired by the painting “Street Scene in Cairo: The Lantern Maker’s Courtship” by the English artist William Holman Hunt. Created between 1854 and 1861, this work reflects the artist’s fascination with Oriental themes. The canvas depicts a narrow street in Cairo, vividly capturing architectural details, colorful clothing, and a scene of courtship. Hunt masterfully combines realism with symbolism, conveying the atmosphere of life and the rich culture of mid-19th century Egypt.
