EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fellah, Egypt, 1898" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The creator of this remarkable portrait is Christian Wilhelm Allers, a renowned artist and illustrator. The image showcases a side view of a distinguished Egyptian man belonging to the fellaheen class - peasants or agricultural laborers. The man's striking profile is enhanced by his traditional headdress, an elegant turban that adds an air of authenticity to the scene. His weathered face tells stories of hard work and resilience as he represents the essence of farming life in rural Egypt during this era. Allers captured not only the physical features but also the spirit and character of this farmhand through his masterful lithograph technique. This powerful portrayal evokes a sense of admiration for those who toiled on these lands, contributing significantly to their country's agriculture. "Fellah, Egypt" is part of Allers' larger body of work called "Rund um die Erde" meaning "Around the Earth". Published by Union Deutsche Berlagsgesellschaft in Stuttgart in 1898, it stands as a testament to Allers' dedication to documenting different cultures around the world through art. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print today, we are transported back in time and reminded once again of our shared human history across continents like Africa. It serves as both a visual masterpiece and an important historical artifact that allows us to appreciate the beauty found within
