We also see Zangaki photographs with images with Arab themes. Here the interest was different. The Arab lands included the Holy Lands. Religious people wereevery interested in scenes of the Holy Land. Wuith the Arabs there was also an interest in the exotic. That brought forward a whole genre of artistic endevor--orientalism. It was the exotic mixed with the sensatuiinal--harems and veiled women. The Zangakis capitalized on this in their Arab photographs. Many of the women in the Zangakis photoigraphs are veiled. These were not creations. The veils depicted actually existed. We are not sure, however, just how common they actually were.
