EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Lemonade-seller, Cairo, Egypt, 1898" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of late 19th century Cairo. The creator of this remarkable piece is Christian Wilhelm Allers, a talented writer and illustrator whose work truly captures the essence of different cultures around the world. In this image, we see a male lemonade-seller skillfully navigating through the crowd with his container full of refreshing drinks. Despite being barefooted, he carries himself with pride and determination as he goes about his daily job. The man's occupation not only provides him with a livelihood but also adds vibrancy to the city's street scene. Allers' attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this portrait - from the seller's traditional Egyptian attire to the cups neatly arranged on his tray. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when soft drinks were still considered a novelty and street vendors played an essential role in satisfying people's thirst on hot summer days. As we admire this lithograph from Allers' book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), it serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with everyday life across different countries and centuries. Through his masterful illustrations, Allers transports us back in time while celebrating ordinary individuals who contribute to their communities through their professions.
