EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Samaritans of Nablus" offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Palestine in the late 19th century. The image, taken from Louis Charles Emile Lortet's renowned collection "La Syrie d aujourd hui" transports us to a time when tradition and history were deeply ingrained in everyday life. In this print, we see a seated Samaritan man dressed in his traditional costume. His attire reflects the customs and identity of his community, showcasing their unique connection to ancient Hebrew traditions. With an air of wisdom and dignity, he represents the resilience and continuity of Samaritan culture amidst changing times. The photograph captures not only the individual but also provides insight into the broader context of Palestinian society during that era. It serves as a reminder that diversity has long been at the heart of this region, with various ethnicities coexisting side by side. Through this evocative artwork, French artist Gerard Degeorge skillfully immortalizes a moment frozen in time – one that invites us to reflect on our shared humanity across different cultures and eras. As we gaze upon this image today, it sparks curiosity about these forgotten narratives while encouraging appreciation for cultural preservation efforts worldwide.
