EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a scene from an Egyptian barbershop in the 19th century, as depicted in Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's book "Galerie complete en tableaux fideles des peuples d'Afrique." The image shows a bearded man seated barefoot on a platform, while a skilled barber and his apprentice attend to him.
The attention to detail in this hand-colored lithograph brings the bustling atmosphere of the barbershop to life. The intricate patterns on the walls and floor, along with the traditional tools of the trade, provide a glimpse into daily life in Egypt during this time period.
The interaction between the barber and his apprentice is captured beautifully, showcasing their expertise and dedication to their craft. The focus on grooming and personal care highlights the importance placed on appearance within Egyptian society.
As we observe this intimate moment between client and barbers, we are transported back in time to experience a slice of history through art. This print serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Egypt and its timeless traditions that continue to shape modern society.
