HAREM, c1900. The Sultan in his Harem. Humorous study by the St. Louis photographer Fritz W. Guerin, c1900

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph print takes us back to the turn of the century and offers a humorous glimpse into the world of a harem through the lens of St. Louis photographer Fritz W. Guerin. In this satirical composition, we find ourselves in an exotic setting where contrasts abound. The Sultan, adorned with a magnificent turban and sporting a distinguished beard, reclines on an elegant chaise while surrounded by beautiful concubines who exude both charm and sensuality. Their youthful beauty is juxtaposed against the aged appearance of some older men present in the scene. Guerin's clever use of satire invites us to question societal norms and challenges traditional notions of power dynamics within harems during that era. As we observe this early American photograph, it becomes evident that it was not only meant for aesthetic appreciation but also as social commentary. The attention to detail is remarkable; from the intricately designed hookah pipe resting beside one of the concubines to each model's carefully arranged pose capturing their allure and gracefulness. This vintage print serves as a reminder that art has always been able to push boundaries and provoke thought even during more conservative times like those at the turn-of-the-century America when such subjects were considered taboo or controversial.
