1985

Title

1985

Description

This image represents the style of photos commonly used in the mid-1980s to illustrate international development: a shot of simple rural life on a typical peasant farm in Egypt.
The composition of this pleasant, whimsical image is a tapestry of varied textures and colours: brick, stone, harvested grain, the folds in the man's indigo shirt, and the hair on the donkey's mane.
