Note: Seif Waly was an Egyptian painter, born Mohammed Seif al-Din Waly, into an aristocratic family of Turkish origin in Alexandria, Egypt, who introduced modern art to Egypt after studying at the studio of the Italian artist Otorino Becchi. In 1942 he set up his own studio with his brother Adham Wanly and together they participated in more than 17 exhibitions, notably in the Venice Biennale and in São Paulo, Brazil. Today an entire floor of the Mahmoud Said Museum in Alexandria is dedicated to Seif and Adham Wanly. His work is in a number of museums including Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art in Doha and the Darat AL Funoon in Amman. He died in 1979 in Stockholm at age of 72.
