EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-A-004676-0005" transports us back to the year 1870, offering a glimpse into the daily life of an Arab family. The image showcases a small group gathered around a rudimentary table on the ground, engrossed in their evening meal. A large tray brimming with various dishes takes center stage on the humble table. The scene exudes warmth and intimacy as we witness this family sharing supper together. Their eating habits are beautifully depicted, highlighting cultural traditions and culinary practices that have been passed down through generations. This snapshot offers valuable insights into their diet and lifestyle. Every detail within the frame tells a story about this ethnic group's way of life during that era. The individuals are dressed in traditional costumes, showcasing intricate fashion choices and headdresses – be it civilian, military or religious – adding depth to their identities. Some members wear veils or accessories that further accentuate their distinctive style. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this portrait holds significant anthropological value by shedding light on Arab Berbers and Negroid populations' customs and heritage. It serves as an invaluable resource for those interested in anthropology, ethnography, folklore studies or population research. It is important to note that this photograph was captured by Zangaki from Alinari; however, any commercial use should not be mentioned when discussing this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography.
