EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the album "Egypt. Photographs by E. M. Acworth" transports us back to Cairo in 1910, capturing a water seller going about his trade on the bustling streets of the city. The image showcases a slice of everyday life in Egypt, with the vendor pushing his cart wheelbarrow filled with receptacles of water for sale.
The scene is rich in detail, offering a glimpse into the commerce and trade that characterized Egyptian society at the time. The architecture and urban backdrop provide context for this itinerant vendor as he navigates through the crowded streets, offering refreshment to passersby.
The portrait of this male water seller is both intimate and revealing, highlighting not only his occupation but also his role within the community. His presence adds depth to our understanding of Egyptian history and culture during this period.
Through this photograph, we are invited to reflect on the complexities of daily life in Cairo over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of how images can capture moments in time and offer insights into different societies and their traditions.
