Entry 16 - Images

It probably seemed silly to most of you that I made an argument based on Art but, in fact, failed to put give access to what those works looked like. You can easily google Nahdet Misr and find the statue but other works are harder to find. After checking with some other people, who are students or photographers, I have decided to post the photos. Be warned:

I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE PHOTOS

So, please do not copy them without including the citation of the book(s) that they came from, which is why I included citations for the books that I scanned to obtain them. They are all slightly cropped from their initial versions because of problems with scanning. I will also immediately take them down if anyone who comes across this site, and knows more about copyright law than me, notifies me that I am doing something illegal. I am not getting any payment for these images and they are solely here to be used in tandem with my research paper, which was written to fulfill a class requirement and appears as another blog post farther down. Thank you.
