EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intriguing figure of Abu El Hade, a Malayan man from the late 19th century. The image was captured by an American photographer whose identity remains unknown but has left a lasting impression through this remarkable portrait. Abu El Hade's striking appearance is highlighted by his unique clothing and hairstyle, which reflect the diversity of global cultures during that era. This photograph serves as an ethnographic study, offering viewers a glimpse into different racial types and their distinct attire. The contrast between Abu El Hade's traditional garments and Western fashion prevalent at the time adds depth to this visual exploration. It invites us to consider how clothing can be both a reflection of one's cultural heritage and a means of comparison across societies. As we delve into this thought-provoking image, we are transported back in time to witness the rich tapestry of human diversity that existed in the late 19th century. Through meticulous attention to detail, the photographer captures every fold of cloth and strand of hair with precision, allowing us to appreciate not only Abu El Hade's physical features but also his individuality. This print is part of an extensive collection known as "Portrait Types of the Midway Plaisance" introduced by Professor F. W. Putnam in 1894. Its inclusion in this series further emphasizes its significance as an invaluable piece within ethnographic studies. With its range of costume variety and meticulous portrayal, this photograph offers us a window into another world—a testament
