The Story Behind the Print
This vintage Cairo menu print reproduces an 1896 buffet menu from Abdin Palace in Egypt, restored as historical wall art for dining rooms, studies, libraries, and Egyptian history gallery walls.
Dated February 12, 1896, the menu records a palace ball during the reign of Khedive Abbas II Hilmi. A crowned emblem, blue Menu heading, and fine red French script give the page its ceremonial character. Its sequence of dishes and elegant typography make it a distinctive piece of Cairo dining history.
Archive Print Co. restores the source image for clarity while preserving the aged character of the original menu. Each reproduction is printed as a giclee art print on heavyweight 325gsm archival matte paper with archival inks.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece; the print will always be richer in person.
