Farewell Villa Casdagli
The interior of this historical landmark of Cairo was burned down by vandals on February 1, 2013. With it will disappear one of Cairo’s most storied and opulent residences, as well as a small part of the story of the Egyptian Arabian horse. See article here.
As in Syria, it is so sad that we are losing these cultural treasures from the earth, and yet it is the people we must hope to save.
