Orientalist Visual Framing

Orientalist Visual Framing is a critical lens for images that stage Egypt or the wider region through exoticizing, typological, colonial, or foreign-market visual conventions. It should be supported by production context, captioning, circulation, or visual convention, and should not be used as a blanket label for every old or foreign-made image.
