Frank Dillon is an Impressionism artist. 19 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Frank Dillon painted Cairo’s alleys and interiors in watercolour during the late 1800s. You’ll find his 1869 “Court of the Cadi” bustling with figures and sharp light, and his “Tombs of the Caliphs” reduced to quiet stone and sun. Every sheet traces intricate screens, domes, and loggias—architectural lace that still lines Cairo’s Islamic quarter. Tap into any of these five watercolours to stand inside a sun-warmed loggia yourself.
