Miguel Ángel Sánchez :: Modern-day Cairo society photographed in the style of the 17th-century maste

Spanish photographer Miguel Ángel Sánchez moved from Madrid to Cairo in 2009, a year before the Arab Spring thrust the country into the world’s spotlight. Despite being in the eye of one of the greatest political and social storms of a generation, he’s used his talent to capture the nuances of 21st-century Egyptian society in the style of a 17th-century Spanish painter.
