Ahmad el Abed was a gender-variant tailor in mid-century Saida, Lebanon. Photographer Hashem el Madani, who captured these photographs, described Ahmad as “in-between man and woman”.

Ahmad and their brother were photographed by Hashem el Madani between 1948 and 1953 and compiled by the Lebanese artist Akram Zaatari. The photographs are part of the Arab Image Foundation collection. Via @takweer_
