The World of Shells is a work on paper coming from the Collection of the Zulficar family, a noble family in Alexandria who are the descendants of Youssef Zulficar Pacha (1866-1952), a judge and the Vice-President of Alexandria’s Mixed Courts of Appeals and Zeinab Saïd, one of Mahmoud Saïd’s sisters, who was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Nazli and whose father was an Egyptian Prime Minister. Their daughter, Safinaz Zulficar also became Queen Farida when she married King Farouk I on 20 January 1938.

Not examined out of frame. The sheet appears to be held securely within its window mount. The edges of the sheet are covered by its window mount. There are three repaired tears in the upper half of the composition. An aqueous bath was done to address previous yellowing of the sheet. Additional restoration was carried out to minimise the creases and some associated losses to the pigment were retouched. A protective varnish was applied to the sheet. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
