EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Egyptians under the veranda of a local" transports us back in time to the late 19th century. Taken between 1890 and 1900, this image captures a moment frozen in history, showcasing a group of Egyptians gathered beneath the shelter of a traditional veranda. The scene is rich with cultural details that offer glimpses into Egyptian life during this era. The veranda itself is adorned with exquisite wooden furnishings, displaying intricate craftsmanship that speaks to Egypt's rich heritage in applied arts and crafts. A beautiful lamp hangs from above, casting a warm glow on the faces below. The subjects of the photograph are predominantly men, dressed in traditional clothing that reflects their social status and occupation. Their attire includes various headdresses such as turbans, hats, and other headpieces worn by civilians or those serving military or religious roles. Each individual exudes an air of masculinity and pride as they pose for this portrait. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph also provides insight into daily life in Egypt at the turn of the century. The building elements surrounding them suggest it may be a commercial space or perhaps even a bar where locals would gather for socializing and trade. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by an unidentified author from Alinari, we cannot help but marvel at how much has changed since then while appreciating how certain aspects endure through time. This print serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact - reminding us of Egypt's timeless beauty and cultural richness.
