EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1936, we are transported to Sudan's bustling capital city of Khartoum. The image captures a Dain el-Tashy woman engaged in the ancient practice of grinding cereals using a primitive method. With her hands skillfully rubbing grain, she demonstrates an age-old technique that has been passed down through generations. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the woman's concentration as she meticulously grinds the grains, creating flour that will sustain her community. Her weathered hands tell a story of resilience and strength, reflecting the hardships faced by many in this region during that era. This print from Liszt Collection not only offers us a glimpse into Sudan's rich cultural heritage but also serves as a reminder of the importance of traditional methods in sustaining communities. It is a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness when faced with limited resources. As we observe this intimate moment frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at the simplicity and beauty found within everyday tasks. This photograph invites us to reflect on our own relationship with food production and consumption while honoring those who have preserved these timeless practices for centuries. With its striking composition and historical significance, this print serves as both an educational tool and a work of art – capturing not just an individual or place but also evoking emotions tied to tradition, culture, and humanity itself.
