EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of a vendor of various objects in Port-Said, Egypt circa 1880. The unidentified photographer has skillfully captured the intricate details of this individual's traditional attire and accessories, providing a glimpse into their work and vocation.
The vendor, dressed in a turban and traditional clothing, exudes an air of dignity and pride as he poses for the camera. His weathered face tells a story of years spent traversing the streets, selling his wares to passersby. The image offers insight into the life of an itinerant vendor in 19th century Egypt, highlighting the cultural richness and diversity of the region.
As we gaze upon this portrait, we are drawn into a world where commerce and trade intersect with tradition and heritage. The presence of negroid populations adds another layer to this anthropological study, shedding light on the diverse ethnic groups that populated Port-Said during this time period.
Through this print on double-weight paper from Alinari Archives in Florence, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the resilience and strength of individuals like this vendor. It serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and interconnectedness across cultures and generations.
