Show moreThe "Bilder-Atlas zu Mekka" (Pictorial Atlas of Mecca) is the photographic portfolio published to accompany the 2-volume work “Mecca” by the Dutch orientalist Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje. In these texts, he reconstructs the history of the Holy City and on the origins of Islam, early traditions and practices, and the first Islamic communities. The second volume, translated into English in 1931 as “Mecca in the Latter Part of the 19th Century”, contains many details of daily life in Islamic culture and deals with the Indonesian Muslim colony at Mecca. While serving as a lecturer at the University of Leiden between 1880 and 1889, Snouck Hurgronje visited Arabia from 1884 to 1885, stopping at Mecca and he was the first Western to take photographs of the Holy City. From 1890 to 1906 Snouck Hurgronje was professor of Arabic at Batavia, Java, and, as a government adviser, he originated and developed the Dutch colonial policy toward Islam. Though Snouck Hurgronje remained a colonial adviser until 1933, he returned in 1906 to the Netherlands, where he was professor of Arabic and Islamic institutions at the University of Leiden until his death. The volume contains 65 collotype prints pasted onto card, along with 4 engravings and 4 colored lithographs. The portfolio includes views of Mecca, while the majority of the photographs consists of single or group portraits of Meccan people and pilgrims from Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and India on their way to the Holy City. Most of the scholars agree that the portraits were taken by Snouck Hurgronje himself, probably in the same courtyard-like space, either at the inner courtyard of the Dutch consulate in Jeddah or in Mecca. The photograph of the Kaaba and the photolithographic reproductions of the Holy City were taken by the Egyptian army engineer Muhammad Sadiq Bey (1832 – 1902), who took the first ever photographs of Medina in 1861 and Mecca between 1880 and 1881. More photographs, such as some of the portraits taken in Mecca, have been taken by al-Sayyid ʻAbd al-Ghaffar (active in 1880s), Snouck Hurgronje’s doctor in Mecca, whom he taught the art of photography. Snouck Hurgronje never mentions his name, but proofs of the existence and the reputation of al-Sayyid ʻAbd al-Ghaffar as a renowned Meccan photographer can be found in the “Journal de Voyages” (1895) by French author Gustave Regelsperger (1856 – 1940) and most importantly in the account published in 1895 “The Guide to the Hajj” by the above-mentioned Muhammad Sadiq Bey, who describes ʻAbd al-Ghaffar Efendi as a famous Indian doctor and photographer. Finally, one print is attributed to orientalist researcher Siegfried Langer (1857 – 1882). I. Die Stadt und ihre Herren II.
