EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1890, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Cairo, Egypt. The image features a donkey and cart laden with passengers, making their way through the city. The donkey, with its determined expression and beaded harness, pulls the cart with ease, its ears pricked forward in concentration. The passengers, dressed in traditional Middle Eastern garb, sit comfortably on the wooden bench seat, their faces a mix of curiosity and contentment as they take in the sights and sounds of the bustling city around them. The narrow, cobblestone street is lined with low, whitewashed buildings, their facades adorned with intricate Arabic script and colorful decorations. The sun casts long shadows across the scene, adding depth and texture to the image. In the background, the minarets of mosques can be seen rising above the rooftops, their slender silhouettes a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this ancient city. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of Cairo during the late 19th century, a time of great change and transformation as the city began to modernize and open up to the world. It is a reminder of the enduring power of the donkey and cart as a mode of transportation, and the resilience and resourcefulness of the people who relied on them to navigate the streets of this vibrant and fascinating city.
