Crystal Palace, The Egyptian Court
This slide shows the Egyptian Court at Crystal Palace. The room is decorated with pillars and paintings of ancient deities. It resembles the Egyptian temples and tombs unearthed by European archaeologists. From 1882 to 1952 Egypt was a British protectorate, as Britain wanted to control the Suez Canal, a vital shipping route.
