EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1903, a blind Afghan boy, accompanied by his devoted parents, makes his way to the Mission Hospital at Peshawar with the hope of regaining his sight. The image captures the raw emotion and determination of the family as they embark on a journey that holds the promise of a brighter future. The photograph, taken in the North-West Frontier Province of Afghanistan, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this region. The traditional Afghan costumes worn by the parents, with the father donning a distinctive hat, serve as a reminder of the deep-rooted customs and traditions that have shaped the lives of the Afghan people for generations. The Mission Hospital at Peshawar, established by Christian missionaries in the late 19th century, was a beacon of hope for those in need of medical care in this remote and often inhospitable region. The hospital's presence marked a significant moment in the history of Afghanistan, as it brought Western medical knowledge and practices to a part of the world that had long been isolated from the rest of the world. The photograph also highlights the resilience and unwavering love of the boy's parents, who are seen supporting and guiding him on his journey. Their hope and determination, despite the challenges they face, serve as a powerful reminder of the human spirit's ability to endure and overcome adversity. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was a very different place. It is a poignant reminder of the power of hope, the importance of medical care, and the enduring bond between parents and their children.
