Description
English: Depicting nine men and a boy in prayer in a domestic interior in Cairo. Leading the prayer and invoking God is a turbaned imam – his fellow worshippers, of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds, unified in their piety. From left to right stand a Syrian in his chafiye turban; a red-bearded European in Eastern dress, and seven Arnauts, or Bashi-bazouks, including a blonde youth, wearing their characteristic white kilts. Irregulars in the Ottoman army, the Arnauts were recruited primarily in the Balkans and deployed across the Empire, including Egypt.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1904, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
