"Mamelukes Exercising in the Square of Mourad Bey's Palace, Plate 35 from Views in Egypt, Engraved by Thomas Milton (1743–1827)" is a notable artwork by Luigi Mayer, an Italian artist known for his detailed and picturesque views of the Ottoman Empire during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This particular piece is part of a larger body of work that captures the essence of Egyptian landscapes, architecture, and daily life during a period of significant interest in Orientalism in Western art.

The artwork depicts a scene of Mamelukes, who were slave soldiers and later a military caste in Egypt, engaged in exercises or possibly a display of horsemanship in the square of Mourad Bey's palace. Mourad Bey was a prominent Mameluke leader in Egypt during the late 18th century, and his palace would have been a significant location in Cairo. The Mamelukes were known for their military prowess, and such exercises would have been both a form of training and a demonstration of their skills.

Luigi Mayer's work is characterized by its attention to detail and its ethnographic accuracy, which was highly valued by European audiences of the time. The engraving by Thomas Milton further enhances the artwork, providing fine detail and depth that brings Mayer's original vision to life. "Views in Egypt" as a collection was instrumental in shaping European perceptions of Egypt and the broader Middle East, feeding into the fascination with exotic locales that was prevalent during the period.

This particular plate, along with others from the series, would have been consumed by an audience eager for knowledge about the world beyond Europe and would have served as both an artistic and an educational tool. The work of Luigi Mayer, complemented by the skilled engraving of Thomas Milton, remains an important historical record of Egypt at the turn of the 19th century and is a testament to the cross-cultural exchanges between Europe and the Middle East during this era.
