EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, an old man dressed in a traditional djelleba sits quietly on the pavement in the bustling Houmt Souk market of Djerba, Tunisia. The djelleba, a hooded garment with flowing sleeves, is a distinctive part of the traditional dress of the Djerban people in North Africa. The man's weathered face, creased with the lines of time, tells the story of a life well-lived. His eyes, filled with wisdom and quiet introspection, seem to hold the secrets of the past. The scene is set against the backdrop of a pale blue door, its faded color a stark contrast to the rich textures and vibrant hues of the market around him. An empty orange plastic basket lies beside him, perhaps a reminder of the daily hustle and bustle of the market or a testament to a simpler way of life. The photograph, taken in 1987, captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a culture and way of life that continues to thrive in the heart of North Africa. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Tunisia and the Djerban people. It invites us to pause and reflect on the beauty and complexity of human experience, and the enduring power of tradition in a rapidly changing world. The photograph is a testament to the art of portraiture and the ability of a single image to transport us to another time and place.
