Evening at Fakus, c1880 - A Glimpse into Daily Life in 19th Century Egypt
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by the talented artist Robert George Talbot Kelly, takes us back to the enchanting town of Fakus in Egypt during the late 19th century. As dusk settles over this picturesque landscape, we are transported to a time when life unfolded at a slower pace. In this scene, a group of local women can be seen going about their daily tasks along the riverbank. One woman gracefully carries an urn on her head, skillfully navigating the bridge that connects the town and country. The soft hues of twilight cast a warm glow upon these hardworking individuals as they fulfill their occupation as water carriers or bhistis. The composition beautifully captures not only the physical geography of Fakus but also offers insight into its people's way of life. It is evident that water plays a vital role in this community as it sustains both livelihoods and traditions. Kelly's masterful use of watercolor brings out every detail with precision and finesse. The colors chosen evoke a sense of tranquility while showcasing the vibrant Egyptian culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from 1904, we cannot help but appreciate how it serves as a window into history—a testament to both artistic talent and cultural heritage.
