EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Group of Bicharis, Egypt, circa 1880s,' offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the ancient wonders of Egypt continued to enchant and intrigue travelers from around the world. The image, believed to have been captured during the late 19th century, depicts a group of local Egyptian men, known as Bicharis, dressed in traditional attire, gathered together in a tranquil setting. The Bicharis were a community of Egyptian Christians who lived in the region of El-Bahariya Oasis, located in the Western Desert of Egypt. They derived their name from the Greek word 'bakcharis,' which means 'priests of the god Bakchus.' The men in this photograph appear to be dressed in the traditional white garments, known as galabiyas, and some wear colorful headscarves or turbans. Their faces are expressive and full of character, revealing the unique beauty and diversity of the Egyptian people. The serene backdrop of the photograph, featuring a palm tree-lined oasis, adds to the idyllic scene. The palm trees, a common sight in the region, provide a stark contrast to the arid desert landscape that surrounds them. The warm, golden light filtering through the trees creates a sense of calm and tranquility, making this photograph a beautiful and evocative representation of life in Egypt during the late 1800s. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare and intriguing glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the lives of the Bicharis and the rich cultural heritage of Egypt during this fascinating period in history.
