EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures an international gathering outside the historic Shepherds Hotel in Cairo, Egypt, during the late 1870s. The Shepherds Hotel, a Victorian-era landmark, was a popular destination for travelers exploring the ancient wonders of Egypt. In this bustling scene, tourists from the West mingle with local Arab touts, creating a vibrant and colorful street scene. The crowd is a diverse representation of the global community of the time, with tourists dressed in their leisurewear, hats, and parasols, contrasting sharply with the traditional Arab attire of the touts. The Shepherds Hotel, with its grand facade and lush gardens, stands proudly in the background, a beacon of comfort and luxury amidst the bustling cityscape. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of tourism in Egypt during the late 19th century. Travel was a luxury afforded only to the wealthy, and Egypt, with its rich history and exotic allure, was a must-visit destination for many. The interaction between tourists and touts in this scene highlights the cultural exchange that took place during this period, as well as the economic relationships that developed between locals and foreigners. Despite the crowded and chaotic appearance of the scene, there is a sense of excitement and adventure in the air. The tourists, eager to explore the ancient pyramids and temples, are undeterred by the presence of the touts, who offer their services as guides or porters. The photograph captures a moment in time, a fleeting instant in the long and complex history of travel and tourism in Egypt.
