EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of Dervish dancers from Constantinople, now Istanbul, Turkey, rehearse together in a quiet, dimly lit room. The image captures a moment of focused concentration and unity, as the men and boys prepare for their performance. The air is thick with the sound of a haunting pipe, its melody weaving through the room and providing the rhythm for their movements. The Dervish order, a Sufi Islamic mystical brotherhood, is renowned for its whirling dance, or Sama, a form of spiritual meditation and communion with the divine. This practice, which dates back to the 13th century, is deeply rooted in the rich cultural history of Turkey and the Middle East. In this photograph, the dancers stand in a circle, their eyes closed and their bodies poised in anticipation. Their master, a wise and experienced figure, stands at the center, observing them closely and offering guidance. The boys, dressed in long, flowing robes and tall, conical hats, mimic the movements of their elders, their faces reflecting a mix of determination and reverence. The scene is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the importance of passing down knowledge and skills from one generation to the next. It also speaks to the transcendent nature of the arts, and the way they can transport us to another time and place, allowing us to connect with the past and with each other in a profound and meaningful way. This photograph, taken in the early 20th century, is a precious reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Turkey and the importance of preserving and celebrating it for future generations. It is a reminder that, even in a rapidly changing world, there are still places where the past and the present come together in a beautiful and harmonious dance.
