EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a group of women refugees in Baghdad, Mesopotamia (now Iraq), diligently sewing army clothing during the First World War. The women, many of whom were Muslim and Arab, were displaced from their homes due to the conflict raging in the region. Amidst the chaos and hardship, they found solace and purpose in their communal sewing efforts. One woman in the foreground is intently focused on her task, her hands deftly guiding the fabric as she uses a Singer automatic sewing machine. The machine, a symbol of industry and productivity, is a testament to the women's resourcefulness and determination. The other women in the background are engaged in various stages of the clothing production process, from cutting and pinning to pressing and finishing. The scene is a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of the human spirit, even in the most challenging of circumstances. The women's efforts not only provided essential clothing for the soldiers fighting in the war but also offered a sense of normalcy and routine in the midst of the chaos. This photograph, taken in 1917, is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices and contributions made by civilians during times of war. It also highlights the important role that women have played throughout history in supporting their communities and nations during times of crisis.
