Ali Al-Tomi

Ali Al-Tomi’s small shop is immediately opposite the Arch of Marcus Aurelius in the medina - what a view! His photos of Libya are just as special. Beautiful images of Roman ruins and medina doorways, desert spaces and springtime wildflowers, Tuareg and their haughty camels, street scenes and vignettes of everyday life - all Libya is here. Typical of the courtesy you’ll meet everywhere in Libya, there’s no pressure to buy, so do call by even if you just want to look. You’ll find Mr Al-Tomi only too happy to show you his photos and have a chat and, if you do decide to make a purchase, you will have something special to take home from your travels. The prints are all hand-finished and of a very high quality, both technically and artistically.
