EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of child's shoes from the Byzantine Period in Egypt. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these leather shoes measure 13.5 cm in length and are currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford, UK. The vibrant red leather exterior is complemented by brown leather soles, expertly bound for durability. The front of the shoes features intricate decorations made from brown and cream leather, adding a touch of elegance to this ancient footwear. Notably, there are holes on the sides along with thongs that were used for fastening. Dating back to approximately 395-642 AD during the Byzantine Period in Egypt, these shoes offer us a glimpse into the fashion preferences and craftsmanship of that era. Despite their age, they have been preserved remarkably well and continue to captivate viewers with their timeless charm. This remarkable photograph captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance of these ancient Egyptian children's shoes. It serves as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity throughout history while reminding us of our shared cultural heritage across time and borders.
