W. Hanselman Explained
W. Hanselman was a photographer of Jewish origin established in Egypt.[1] Working for Cairo's Anglo-Swiss Studio, he was renowned for his images of King Fuad I, Queen Farida and other Egyptian royalty.[2] According to American photographer Barry Iverson (born in 1956), Hanselman was the great genius of court photography at the time and very much the favorite, particularly in the late 1920s.[3] One of his most recognizable works is a black-and-white photographic portrait of Egyptian nationalist leader and prime minister Saad Zaghloul.[4]
