EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the daily life of an African American fish vendor in Augusta, Georgia, USA, around 1903. The man, dressed in simple work clothes, gazes directly at the camera with a determined expression, as he proudly displays his fresh catch of fish on a makeshift table. The horse-drawn carriage in the background adds to the historic setting, highlighting the importance of horse-drawn transportation during this era. The vendor's attire, consisting of a long-sleeved shirt, trousers, and a wide-brimmed hat, reflects the practicality and functionality of clothing during the early 1900s. The fish vendor's profession was an essential part of the community, providing fresh seafood to residents and visitors alike. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of African Americans in the United States, and the diverse occupations that shaped the country's social fabric. The glass negative, with its intricate details and textures, offers a glimpse into the past, preserving the memory of this moment in time for future generations.
