Biography edit

Amin was born in Tanta in 1923. He studied at the Institute of book art in Urbino, Italy.[2] He was interested in teaching his students about the modern techniques applied by schools abroad. However, he was keen to make use of the talents of his ancient forerunners in view of Egypt's rich Pharaonic, Coptic, Islamic and Folk arts. Accordingly, he succeeded in a unique style in his works. His masterpieces and unique techniques impressed Egyptian modern art. The artist's versatility helped him to work as a photographer, a sculptor, and an illustrator. He received the First Class Award of Art and Science in 1974.[3][4]

Kamal Amin was married to a Swedish woman and had two children.
