EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Two girls from Bethlehem" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The image, captured by Bonfils Studio, showcases two young Palestinian girls seated side by side in traditional dress. Dressed in ornate headscarves and costumes adorned with intricate decorations, these girls exude a sense of cultural pride and beauty. Their expressive eyes draw you into their world as they wear delicate necklaces that complement their attire. The photographer skillfully captures the essence of childhood innocence through this portrait. The children's three-quarter-length poses allow us to appreciate every detail of their garments and jewelry. It is evident that great care has been taken in dressing them for this momentous occasion. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a different era, where life was simpler yet filled with rich traditions and customs. These two girls represent the vibrant heritage of Bethlehem, a place steeped in history and significance. Preserved by the Palestine Exploration Fund based in London, UK, this print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Palestinian culture. It reminds us of the importance of cherishing our roots while appreciating diversity across different regions. Through Bridgeman Images' reproduction of this historical artwork, we can now admire these young girls' timeless beauty and celebrate their contribution to our shared human story.
