EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Young Tunisian woman. Photography 1893" transports us back to the late 19th century in North Africa. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their lens captured a mesmerizing glimpse into the life of this veiled young woman. Dressed in traditional Tunisian attire, she stands gracefully against a backdrop that hints at her cultural habitat. Her eyes are veiled, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to her portrait. This image offers a rare insight into the Muslim religion and Islamic traditions prevalent in Tunisia during that era. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its artistic merit but also as a historical document showcasing Arab civilization in the Maghreb region. It serves as a reminder of Tunisia's rich cultural heritage and its contribution to the broader tapestry of human history. Preserved within a private collection, this print by Leonard de Selva allows us to appreciate both the technical skill behind early photography and its ability to capture moments frozen in time. As we gaze upon this young Tunisian woman from over a century ago, we are reminded of our shared humanity across cultures and religions.
