EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating image of a group of Bisharin tribal women and children, captured in Egypt during the 1920s. The Bisharin people are an ethnic group indigenous to the northern region of Egypt, with a rich cultural heritage that is deeply rooted in the African continent. In this photograph, a mother cradles her young child in her arms, while her daughter looks on with curiosity and wonder. The women, dressed in traditional attire, are adorned with intricate braids that cascade down their backs, a distinctive feature of the Bisharin tribe. Their faces are adorned with jewelry and henna, adding to their striking beauty. The children, dressed in simple clothing, play and laugh amongst themselves, their joy and innocence shining through. The group is surrounded by the arid landscape of the Egyptian desert, providing a stark yet beautiful backdrop to their daily life. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of the Bisharin people during a time when their traditions and way of life were still largely intact. It is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural diversity that exists within Egypt and the African continent as a whole. The women's strong bond with their children, their proud display of their cultural heritage, and the joy and playfulness of the children make this image a truly beautiful and evocative representation of the Bisharin tribe.
