1978 Arab Away Build Cairo Camera Distant Sits Stool Tray Walks
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the hustle and bustle of everyday life in Cairo, Egypt, in 1978. The image shows a build-up street filled with people walking and sitting at a distance. To the left of the frame, a man takes a break from his day, sitting on a stool, while to the near right, another man carries a tray, balancing it skillfully as he walks away from the camera. In the center back of the image, a car adds a sense of movement and modernity to the scene. The man in light blue traditional Arab dress, dressed in the vibrant colors and intricate patterns that are emblematic of Egyptian culture, blends seamlessly into the bustling urban landscape. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved at a different pace, and the sights, sounds, and smells of the bustling streets of Cairo were a constant source of wonder and intrigue.
