EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of a meat market in Lahore, India during the 1930s. At the center of the image, a butcher intently weighs out a piece of meat for a customer, his focused expression betraying no sign of the unsanitary conditions that surround him. The market stall, cluttered with various cuts of meat and offal, appears unhygienic with flies buzzing around and the counter seemingly covered in grime. The butcher's tools, including a large cleaver and a scale, are also coated in a layer of grime, raising concerns about the cleanliness and safety of the meat being sold. Despite the apparent unsanitary conditions, the market continues to thrive as the butcher prepares to sell out for the day. Once he has finished with his last customer, he will likely sleep on the very counter where he has been working, a common practice in such markets. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a meat trader in Asia during the 1930s, highlighting the resilience and adaptability of those who worked in the informal sector. The image also serves as a reminder of the challenges that existed in ensuring the safety and hygiene of food markets, issues that remain relevant even today.
