This print from 1900 captures a scene of daily life in Egypt along the Nile Valley during a Cook cruise. In the image, women can be seen working in a cotton field alongside donkeys, showcasing the agricultural traditions of the region. The lush greenery and various plants surrounding them paint a picture of the rich natural beauty that Egypt has to offer. The presence of donkeys as essential tools for farming highlights the importance of animals in Egyptian agriculture during this time period. The women's traditional clothing and hard work reflect their dedication to their craft and way of life. As tourists on a cruise pass by, they are given a glimpse into the authentic culture and practices of North Africa. This photograph serves as a window into early 20th-century Egypt, capturing moments that may have otherwise been lost to history. The serene waters of the Nile River in the background add an element of tranquility to this bustling scene, reminding viewers of the vital role that this iconic river plays in sustaining life in Egypt. Overall, this print is not just a snapshot from the past but also an invaluable piece of cultural heritage that sheds light on daily life in Egypt over a century ago.
