EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of a strong and independent Egyptian woman from the early 20th century. Dressed in traditional North African attire, she stands boldly with her back turned to the camera, her arms crossed defiantly as she takes a puff from a cigarette. The striped headscarf, known as a shawl, covers her hair and frames her face, while a necklace adorns her neck and immense hooped metallic bangles adorn her wrists. The date of this photograph is 1919, a time of great change and upheaval in Egypt as it began its journey towards independence from British rule. The racial and gender stereotypes of the time often portrayed Egyptian women as submissive and passive, but this powerful image challenges those assumptions. The woman's striking presence and confident demeanor convey a sense of independence and self-assurance that was not commonly seen in depictions of Egyptian women during this period. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and strength of Egyptian women, and serves as a reminder of their rich cultural heritage and history.
