EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Women in Harar" transports us back to the vibrant streets of 19th century Ethiopia. Taken by a French photographer and now part of a private collection, this image captures the essence of daily life in Harar with remarkable detail. The scene depicts a group of women elegantly dressed in traditional clothing, their faces adorned with intricate patterns and expressions that hint at stories untold. Each woman exudes grace and strength as they navigate the bustling street, their presence commanding attention from passersby. Published in Figaro Illustre's February 1898 edition, this photograph offers a rare glimpse into African fashion during that era. The women's attire showcases an exquisite blend of cultural heritage and personal style, reflecting both tradition and individuality. Harar itself is brought to life through this lens - its narrow streets filled with people going about their daily routines. The architecture surrounding them hints at the rich history embedded within these walls. As we gaze upon this timeless piece captured over a century ago, we are reminded of photography's power to transcend time and space. It allows us to connect with distant cultures while appreciating the beauty found within our shared humanity. This print serves as an invitation for exploration - an opportunity to immerse ourselves in Ethiopian culture while celebrating the resilience and beauty embodied by these remarkable women.
