EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the vibrant and intricately woven fabric of Izmir, Turkey's Armenian Quarter, as it once stood in its full glory around the turn of the 20th century. The image, taken circa 1905, showcases the picturesque rooftops of the suburb, with their distinctive red-tiled structures and colorful chimneys, nestled among the lush greenery of the surrounding hills. The Armenian Quarter, also known as the Armenian Suburb or Smyrne, was a thriving and culturally rich community in the bustling port city of Izmir, which was then known as Smyrna. Sadly, this idyllic scene was forever changed by the Great Fire of 1922, which devastated the Quarter and left it in ruins. The fire, which broke out on September 13, 1922, raged for several days, leaving thousands of Armenians and Greeks homeless and destitute. The flames consumed entire neighborhoods, reducing them to ashes and rubble. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity that once flourished in the Armenian Quarter of Izmir. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of preserving the memories of our past. By looking at this image, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the world around us, and the importance of safeguarding our heritage for future generations.
