Description
Maxime Touta was only 13 when, in January 1863, he watched a young officer being publicly degraded in the Place des Consuls in Alexandria. The scene marked the beginning of an extraordinary period in 19th-century Egypt, which was then governed by the European puppet ruler, the Khedive Ismail.
