Carmel Israel Meal Mount Peasant Taking Druses
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, depicts a group of Peasant Druses, also known as Druzes, taking a communal meal on the slopes of Mount Carmel in the Holy Land, now modern-day Israel. The Druze community, an offshoot of Islam, has long been known for its unique religious practices and distinct cultural identity. In this image, we see a group of men and women gathered around a large, colorful spread, their faces expressing a sense of warmth and camaraderie. The women wear traditional, flowing garments adorned with intricate embroidery, while the men don turbans and long robes. The setting sun casts a golden glow over the scene, adding a nostalgic and picturesque quality to the image. The photograph, which is part of a collection of Photochrom prints, was likely produced using a chromolithographic process, which allowed for the creation of richly colored and detailed images. This historical view offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Druze community in the late 19th century, providing a valuable record of a tradition that continues to thrive in the region today.
