The Mokattam from the Citadel of Cairo - James Tissot - Dining Room Wall Art

At a Glance

For collectors searching fine art oil painting, The Mokattam from the Citadel of Cairo is a dependable choice. Painted in layered oils on canvas after James Tissot, this vintage work reads equally well as classic canvas wall art and as a thoughtful housewarming gift.

Composition & Subject

Le Mokatam au-dessus dela Citadelle du Caire
1886-1894
Oil on board
Brooklyn Museum, United States.

The fine art subject is rebuilt stroke by stroke in oil, giving the finished canvas the depth expected of vintage oil painting wall decor.

How It Is Made

From primer to varnish, the work is done manually on artist-grade canvas. The absence of digital printing is deliberate: it keeps the fine art brushwork visible and gives the vintage oil painting wall decor a museum-like finish.
