EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures an Ethiopian noblewoman, elegantly dressed in traditional attire, accompanied by two devoted attendants as they make their way through the bustling streets of Addis Ababa during the late 1930s. The noblewoman, adorned with intricate jewelry and a flowing, colorful robe, exudes an air of grace and dignity. Her two attendants, dressed in matching garments, carry two ornate baskets on their heads, each adorned with conical lids. These baskets, a symbol of Ethiopian culture and tradition, are believed to have been used to carry the noblewoman's most precious possessions, such as food, water, and personal items. The attendants, with their strong and determined expressions, demonstrate their dedication and loyalty to their noblewoman. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the lives of the Ethiopian nobility during a time of great change and transition, as Ethiopia, also known as Abyssinia, began to modernize and adapt to the influences of the outside world. The ornate baskets, with their conical lids, serve as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive in Ethiopia to this day.
