EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1907, showcases an American gentleman in his Varsity Overcoat, as he admires the exotic landscapes of Egypt from a distance. The overcoat, a quintessential representation of Edwardian men's fashion, is viewed from the rear in this 3/4 length snapshot. The ample skirts and pocket flaps of the Varsity Overcoat are evident, providing a sense of warmth and protection against the cool desert air. The dapper gent in the image wears a bowler hat, a popular accessory for tourists during this era. His bowler hat sits atop his head, casting a shadow over his face as he focuses intently on the Egyptian ruins and camels in the distance. The overcoat, with its classic Varsity style, adds an air of sophistication and adventure to his holiday attire. The Varsity Overcoat, a style that originated in the United States in the late 19th century, was characterized by its full length, double-breasted design, and ample skirts. This particular overcoat, however, is shorter in length, reflecting the changing fashion trends of the early 20th century. The photograph, taken during the Edwardian era, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of exploration and discovery. The gentleman's intent gaze and the backdrop of ancient Egyptian ruins add to the historical significance of the image, making it a fascinating addition to any collection of historical photographs.
