EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Boy with a gun, Aden Protectorate, Arabia, 1936" takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of the Middle East in the 1930s. The image showcases a young boy dressed in traditional Arabian attire, proudly holding a gun as if he were already a seasoned soldier. His costume includes an intricately designed headdress or turban and a cartridge belt strapped across his chest. The photograph is part of the renowned book "Peoples of the World in Pictures" edited by Harold Wheeler and published by Odhams Press Ltd in London during that era. It beautifully captures not only the innocence of childhood but also reflects on themes such as war, weaponry, and indigenous cultures. The artist behind this thought-provoking piece is simply known as Fox. Through their lens, they have managed to freeze this moment in time forever - showcasing both cultural significance and historical context within one frame. As we gaze upon this striking image today, it serves as a reminder of how art can transport us through time and space while shedding light on different corners of our world's diverse history.
