EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Dervish and Peasant Women: A Journey through Soudan and Western Abyssinia,' is an intriguing glimpse into the diverse cultures of the Horn of Africa during the late 19th century. The image, from Henry Walter Bates's 'Illustrated Travels' published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London in 1875, offers a unique perspective on the lives of Sufi Dervishes and local peasant women in this region. Bates, a British travel writer, was held captive in Soudan and Western Abyssinia for several months during his travels, providing a firsthand account of the people and places he encountered. In this photograph, we see a Dervish man, dressed in traditional robes and a pointed hat, deep in meditation, while a group of peasant women, dressed in colorful clothing, look on curiously. The contrast between the spiritual focus of the Dervish and the everyday life of the women highlights the rich tapestry of experiences and beliefs that existed in this part of the world during this period. The photograph, which is part of a larger collection of images from Bates's travels, offers a rare and valuable insight into the people and cultures of the Horn of Africa during a time when European exploration and colonization were shaping the region. The image is a poignant reminder of the complex and diverse histories that have shaped the continent, and the enduring power of human curiosity and resilience in the face of adversity.
