EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in Egypt during the year 1922, depicts two Egyptian men engrossed in a game of draughts in a tranquil courtyard. The men, dressed in traditional Middle Eastern attire, wear turbans and sit on low cushions spread out on the ground. A friend, also dressed in Arabic clothing, sits alongside them, sharing in the camaraderie of the moment. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a double nargileh, or hookah pipe, which sits between the men. The pipe, a common feature in Middle Eastern cultures, adds to the relaxed and leisurely atmosphere of the image. The men take turns smoking from the pipe, inhaling the sweetly scented smoke that rises from it. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Egyptian people during the 1920s, a time when the world was undergoing significant social and cultural changes. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East and the enduring traditions that continue to thrive in the region today. The men in the photograph, with their focused expressions and relaxed postures, convey a sense of unity and companionship. The image invites us to pause and reflect on the simple pleasures of life and the enduring power of human connection, regardless of time or place.
