EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "In the desert, beyond Harar" transports us to a bygone era in Ethiopia. Taken by an anonymous French photographer in the 19th century, this image captures the essence of life amidst the vast deserts of Africa. The scene unfolds with a cluster of traditional tents dotting the arid landscape. These nomadic dwellings serve as temporary homes for the people who inhabit them. Dressed in their distinctive attire, these individuals exude a sense of pride and resilience. As our gaze wanders further into the frame, we notice groups of men standing tall with weapons at their sides – spears poised for protection or hunting purposes. Their presence adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this remote setting. The photographer skillfully captures not only the physical surroundings but also conveys a deeper narrative about life in this harsh environment. The composition evokes a sense of isolation and solitude while simultaneously showcasing humanity's ability to adapt and thrive against all odds. Originally published in Figaro Illustre magazine in February 1898, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history through its timeless lens. Preserved within private collections until now, it serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical document that allows us to explore Ethiopia's rich cultural heritage. Courtesy of Bridgeman Images via Fine Art Finder platform, this print invites us to contemplate the beauty found within distant lands while appreciating photography's power to transcend time itself.
