EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of childhood in the Egyptian village of Marg near Cairo during the early 20th century. The image shows a group of young Egyptian children, their faces filled with joy and excitement, as they ride a donkey through the dusty streets of the village. The donkey, a common mode of transportation in rural Egypt at the time, appears strong and sturdy, carrying the weight of its young passengers with ease. The village of Marg, located on the outskirts of Cairo, was a typical Egyptian rural community in the early 1900s. The villagers lived in simple mud-brick houses, and their daily lives revolved around agriculture and animal husbandry. The children in this photograph are likely from farming families, and their clothes, though worn and simple, are indicative of their rural upbringing. The photograph offers a glimpse into a time long past, a time when life was simpler, and children's joys were found in the simple pleasures of riding a donkey through the village. It is a reminder of the universal experience of childhood and the enduring bond between children and animals. The photograph also provides a historical record of a time and place that has largely disappeared, offering a window into the past and a connection to Egypt's rich cultural heritage.
