EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment from the International Ethnographic Exhibition held in Dresden, Germany, in 1907. At the heart of the image stands Emperor Menelik's Bodyguard, an Ethiopian warrior clad in traditional attire, proudly displaying the carcass of an Abyssinian dish. The exhibition, which ran from May to October of that year, showcased an extensive collection of ethnographic and anthropological artifacts from various parts of the world. Emperor Menelik II (1844-1913) was the ruler of Ethiopia, also known as Abyssinia, from 1889 until his death. He is celebrated for his military prowess and his successful modernization of Ethiopia. The presence of his bodyguard at the exhibition served to highlight Ethiopia's rich cultural heritage and its connection to the wider world. The kitchen sign in the background, written in German, indicates that the exhibition organizers had set up a demonstration area for visitors to observe and learn about the cooking techniques and ingredients used in Ethiopian cuisine. The display of Emperor Menelik's Bodyguard and the Abyssinian dish offers a unique glimpse into the intersection of international exchange, cultural representation, and culinary traditions during this period. This photograph is an intriguing reminder of the global connections that existed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as the role that ethnographic exhibitions played in shaping our understanding of diverse cultures and communities.
