Remarks
The text details the renovation of the shrine of Ahmad al-Badawi commissioned by the local authorities. The interior of the dome was decorated with gold and lapis lazuli as part of an extensive project (amal kathir). This highlights the use of precious materials in late 18th-century Egyptian religious architecture. (p. 600)
