Dye Workshop Fights to Survive in Egypt

Salama Mahmoud Salama, 75, the owner of a dye workshop looks on as Hisham Aly, 37, colours yarns at the workshop in old Cairo, Egypt, March 17, 2016. Egypt's hard currency crisis and competition from modern factories in Asia and at home threaten one of the last dye workshops in Egypt. But one of its owners takes comfort in the trade's ancient resilience. Mohamed Mostafa boasts that the profession dates back 3,000 years, so it can survive anything.
