EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily scene of fish sellers at work in the bustling streets of Cairo, Egypt during the 1910s. The image features a pair of fish sellers, with the taller gentleman on the left taking center stage. He wears a traditional Egyptian galabiyya and holds a pair of scales in one hand, meticulously measuring the weight of a freshly caught fish in a flat basket with the other. The boy next to him carries a similar basket, ready to help or perhaps sell his own catch. The taller fish seller's blindness adds an intriguing layer to the story. Despite his disability, he expertly balances the fish on the scales, demonstrating the skill and experience honed through years of practice. His height and the boy's assistance enable them to reach the customers effectively, making their business accessible to a wider audience. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of North Africa, showcasing the resilience and adaptability of the Egyptian people. The fish sellers' dedication to their craft and their ability to thrive in their environment despite challenges is a testament to their strength and determination.
