EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1870, offers a glimpse into the daily life of street barbers in Egypt during the 19th century. The image portrays a bustling scene on the streets of an Egyptian city, with several barbers intently focused on their work. Each barber is seated on a low stool, their clients comfortably perched on simple wooden chairs. The barbers deftly wield their razors and scissors, expertly shaving beards and trimming hair. The men, dressed in traditional Egyptian garb, appear relaxed and engaged in conversation, seemingly unfazed by the hustle and bustle of the busy street. The trade of street barbering was a common sight in Egypt during this era, providing an essential service to the local population. With no formal barbershops or salons readily available, these skilled artisans set up shop on the streets, offering their services to passersby. This photograph provides a unique window into the past, showcasing the camaraderie and community that existed between the barbers and their clients. The vibrant colors and rich textures of the scene are brought to life in this exquisite print, transporting us back in time to a moment of everyday life in Egypt over a century ago. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring human connection that exists across cultures and generations, as well as the simple pleasure of a well-groomed appearance.
