EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-004496-0050" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The image showcases a bustling factory of ceramic vases and gargoulettes (pitchers) made from clay in Qena, also known as Kaine or Caene or Caenepolis. This historical snapshot offers a glimpse into the thriving world of applied arts and crafts in Egypt during this era. The scene is filled with activity as skilled artisans meticulously shape and mold clay into exquisite vessels. The air is thick with creativity and dedication, evident in every stroke of their hands. These craftsmen are not merely creating objects; they are weaving together pieces of history. As we delve deeper into the photograph's details, we discover that it holds much more than meets the eye. It serves as a window into the rich tapestry of Egypt's contemporary nations, populations, territories, and its vibrant past. Each vase and pitcher represents not only an object but also a story waiting to be unraveled. The date imprinted on the photo suggests that this snapshot was taken around 1890 - a time when Egypt was undergoing significant changes both politically and socially. Through this lens, we witness how artistry intertwines with history itself. Sebah Pascal's masterful composition captures not just an ordinary factory but rather an emblematic symbol of Egyptian heritage. This print stands as a testament to the enduring legacy left by those who dedicated their lives to preserving ancient traditions through their craft. In essence, "AVQ-A-004496-0050" transports us across time and space to witness firsthand the beauty born from human ingenuity – where clay transforms into timeless works of art: vases that hold stories untold and pitchers brimming with cultural significance
