Today we see the painting "The Nile in Beni Suef" by the French artist Charles Tudor Freer, who lived between the years (1814-1888).
It is clear that the orientalists were fond of the Nile, following him in all regions, and continuing the journey with him, seeing his strength and aggression and seeing his calm and tranquility. In the painting, Tiyadur Frere could not overlook what he saw in the city of Beni Suef, where the rural nature is mixed with the strong Nile.
And the French artist "Theodore Frere" sought to present an international painting in the sense that the museums of the world know in terms of luxury, clarity of colors, angle of drawing and the image crowding with important and useful features suitable for art work. And we see the sky with its color that resembles the water of the Nile, as if the earth and the sky are one thing in the painting.
All of this makes you only have to admire the painting and the art you offer that really pushes you to go to the Nile and enjoy its beauty, and know its value, which others are trying to reduce, or even take away from us.
