- Two important Egyptian landscapes by Mahmoud Said from a private Alexandrian Collection 'Mahmoud Said's seascapes reflected the feelings of each Arab when standing on the seashore, gazing into the distant horizon and watching the people passing by
- They bring upon the imagination those sprawling Arabian shores at the zenith of their civilization, while the artists hand recreates, with aquamarine and lapis lazuli tones and such crystal clarity, the sea that was once Arabian, as if composed of jewels that gleam in a deep silence.' -Saad El Khadem
