◐ Artist World Record ◑

마흐무드 사이드 베이(Mahmoud Said Bey, 1897-1964)는 알렉산드리아의 판사이자 현대 화가이다. 마흐무드 사이드는 이집트의 수상이었던 무함마드 사이드 파샤(Muhammad Said Pasha)의 아들로 알렉산드리아에서 1897년에 태어났다. 이집트의 여왕 파리다(Farida)는 작가의 조카딸이었고, 그녀는 작가를 '조용하고 온유하고 극도로 소심한 사람'으로 묘사했다.

​작가는 어렸을 적에 미술교육을 받기도 하였지만, 고등학교 졸업 이후 마흐무드 사이드는 법대에 입학하여 1919년에 학위를 받았고, 1919년에서 1921년 사이에 유럽을 여행하고 아카데미 줄리안( Académie Julian)에서 공부하였다. 그는 이집트로 돌아와 1950년대 아버지가 돌아가실 때까지 이집트의 혼합 법정에서 일했다. 마흐무드 사이드는 전문 예술가로 일한 적이 없고, 판사로 재직했지만 1964년 세상을 떠날 때까지 엄청난 다작을 남긴 것으로 알려져 있다.
