EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Abdul, a waiter at the Aswan Hotel in Egypt, in 1898. The portrait, taken by Christian Wilhelm Allers as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" [Round the Earth], showcases a man wearing a traditional fez while elegantly holding a cigarette. Abdul's enigmatic gaze draws you into his world, reflecting both pride and resilience. The image not only transports us to early 20th century Africa but also provides glimpses of Egyptian culture and fashion during that time. The intricate details of Abdul's clothing highlight the rich heritage of North African attire. His occupation as a waiter at one of Egypt's renowned hotels speaks to the importance of hospitality in this era. In addition to capturing Abdul's individuality, this photograph also serves as an artistic representation with its beautifully composed composition and use of light and shadow. It is evident that Allers was not only skilled with words but also possessed great talent behind the lens. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images, we are reminded of how photography can transcend time and space by preserving moments frozen forever. This image allows us to connect with history on a personal level, offering insight into the lives and stories of individuals like Abdul who played their part in shaping our world.
