EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1899, showcases the breathtaking Monastery of Soumela nestled on the cliffside of the Zigana Mountain in Trabzon, Turkey. Trabzon, the capital city of Trabzon Province, was a significant location during ancient times due to its strategic position on the historic Silk Road trade route. The city's importance grew during the Ottoman period, as its port became a crucial hub for trade with Iran, India, and the Caucasus. The Monastery of Soumela, also known as the Monastery of the Virgin Mary, was founded in 386 AD. Perched precariously on the cliff face, it is a testament to the dedication and perseverance of the monastic community that built it. The monastery complex, consisting of the Monastery of the Virgin Mary and the Monastery of St. George, is a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture, with intricate frescoes and ornate carvings adorning the walls. Trabzon, also known as Trebizond or Trebizonde, was a thriving city during the Ottoman Empire, with a rich cultural heritage. The city's history is steeped in legend and mystery, with tales of pirates, emperors, and saints. The Monastery of Soumela is a symbol of this history and a must-see destination for anyone interested in the religious and cultural heritage of Turkey. This photograph, taken in 1901, captures the monastery in all its glory, with the turquoise waters of the Black Sea stretching out in the background. The image is a reminder of the beauty and history that can be found in the most unexpected places, and the enduring power of faith and perseverance.
