EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1922, we are transported to the vibrant streets of Harar, Ethiopia during a festive occasion. The image showcases a woman adorned in exquisite ceremonial attire, representing the rich cultural heritage of her country. Her direct gaze exudes confidence and pride as she stands tall in full length, commanding attention from all who pass by. The woman's ceremonial dress is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into its creation. Every stitch and embellishment tells a story of tradition and identity, reflecting the deep-rooted customs of her community. As she stands within a passageway, surrounded by the bustling energy of people going about their day, she becomes an emblematic figure representing not only herself but also the strength and resilience of Ethiopian women. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - an era when Ethiopia was transitioning from Abyssinia to becoming part of the British Empire. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that allows us to glimpse into the lives of individuals who shaped their nation's past. As we contemplate this remarkable image captured by an unknown creator but preserved through JA Hammerton's publication "Peoples of All Nations" let us celebrate diversity, honor traditions, and appreciate the power behind each individual portrait that contributes to our collective human story.
