EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a Corporal of the Egyptian Police stands at attention in the sun-soaked streets of Sousse, Tunisia. Dated circa 1905, this image offers a glimpse into the past of colonial North Africa, a time when European powers exerted significant influence over the region. The Corporal, dressed in his full military uniform, wears the distinctive headgear of the Egyptian Police, adorned with a fez and a red tassel. His chest is bedecked with medals and insignia, signifying his rank and dedication to his duty. He clutches a rifle in his right hand, the bayonet fixed and ready, while his left hand rests on a backpack slung over his shoulder. The Corporal's stern expression and posture convey a sense of discipline and readiness, as if he is on constant alert. The backdrop of the photograph is a bustling North African scene, with people and animals going about their daily business in the background. The sun casts long shadows over the cobblestone streets, and the warm light illuminates the Corporal's uniform, making him stand out against the vibrant colors of the surrounding environment. This photograph provides a fascinating insight into the role of the Egyptian Police during the colonial era, and the daily life of the military personnel stationed in Tunisia. It is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of North Africa, and the complex relationships that existed between European powers and the local population during this period.
