EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Arab women carrying milk jars, Jerusalem" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. Captured by a Swiss photographer and preserved by the Palestine Exploration Fund in London, this photochrom offers a glimpse into the lives of Arab women in Jerusalem during that era. In this image, we see a group of strong and resilient Arab women gracefully balancing milk jars on their heads. Dressed in traditional robes and head coverings, they stand proudly against a stone wall backdrop. The vibrant colors brought to life through the photochrome technique add depth and richness to their attire. The scene portrays not only the daily routines of these remarkable women but also highlights their significant role as providers for their families and communities. With baskets at their sides, they navigate through bustling streets with poise and determination. This photograph serves as a testament to the cultural heritage of Middle Eastern societies while shedding light on an important aspect of Palestinian history. It reminds us of the strength and resilience found within these communities throughout time. As we admire this historical gem captured over a century ago, let it serve as an invitation to explore further into our shared human experiences across different cultures and eras.
