With over four decades of dedication, Mohsen preserves the soul of Egyptian heritage. Every stroke of his reed pen captures the essence of a bygone era, rooted in Luxor's ancient traditions.
He has been painting since a very young age, growing up in a family deeply connected to art. He was trained by his father, the artist Mohsen Riad, who taught him the traditional techniques of painting on papyrus and the art of handcrafting ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic letters on papyrus sheets.
Our storefront welcomes you with our signature blue sign and a vibrant display of hand-painted papyrus scrolls. It is a genuine piece of local craftsmanship, inviting you to step inside and discover ancient Egyptian tradition.
