“La Semaine Égyptienne” was a Franco-Egyptian journal active in the early 20th century, serving as a platform for cultural and intellectual exchange between French and Egyptian communities. The publication featured articles on literature, art, and contemporary issues, reflecting the vibrant cultural scene in Egypt during that period.
“La Semaine Égyptienne, Hommage à Goethe is honoring the life and work of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832), the celebrated German writer, poet, and philosopher. It aligns with broader international celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of Goethe’s death, which occurred in 1832.
Gerhart Bettermann (1910 -1992) was a German painter and graphic artist. He was one of the most influential artists in Schleswig-Holstein’s cultural policy after 1945.
