EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Collecting taxes from a fellah by the aid of the kourbash" captures a scene in a village on Manzaleh Lake during the 19th century. Published in The War in Egypt and the Soudan, this image offers a glimpse into an episode in the history of the British Empire. In this print, we witness men clad in traditional clothing and uniforms as they carry out their duty of tax collection. The focal point of the engraving is a man being subjected to punishment with a kourbash, which was commonly used as an instrument for flogging. This depiction sheds light on how taxation was enforced during that era, highlighting both its oppressive nature and its impact on local communities. Amidst this somber scene, women can be seen observing from afar, adding depth to our understanding of gender dynamics at that time. Additionally, various fashion choices are showcased through different individuals' attire - providing insight into cultural diversity within Egypt during this period. This print serves as an important historical document capturing not only taxation practices but also aspects of everyday life and social structures prevalent during colonial times. It invites us to reflect upon the complexities surrounding power dynamics between colonizers and colonized peoples while reminding us of how far society has progressed since then.
