EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Abdul Halim, a waiter on the Hatasoo steamboat in Egypt back in 1898. The Hatasoo, a magnificent passenger paddle steamer built in 1890, sailed along the majestic River Nile. Christian Wilhelm Allers, an accomplished writer and illustrator, beautifully documented this moment as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth). Abdul Halim stands tall in his traditional Egyptian attire, wearing a fez atop his head and an apron around his waist. With a side view profile that exudes elegance and grace, he personifies the hardworking spirit of those who served aboard these grand vessels. The lithograph portrait showcases every intricate detail - from Abdul's meticulously dressed appearance to the feather duster he holds with pride. This image transports us back to the enchanting era of water transport during the late 19th century. As we admire this piece of artistry by Christian Wilhelm Allers, we are reminded of not only Abdul's profession but also the rich cultural heritage embedded within Egypt's history. It serves as a testament to how transportation played an integral role in connecting people across different countries and continents. This print is more than just a visual representation; it is an invitation to explore our past through literature and imagery. Let it inspire you to delve deeper into tales of adventure on board steamboats like Hatasoo while appreciating individuals like Abdul Halim who contributed their skills and dedication to make these journeys unforgettable.
