EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scenic beauty and historical significance of Baghdad's riverside in 1918. The image, taken from an elevated vantage point, offers a panoramic view of the Tigris River as it meanders through the heart of the ancient city. The serene waters reflect the vibrant colors of the surrounding landscape, with lush vegetation and palm trees lining the riverbanks. In the distance, the iconic Al-Rasheed Bridge, named after the famous Abbasid caliph, can be seen connecting the eastern and western banks of the river. Baghdad, the capital city of Iraq, has a rich and complex history that spans over 14 centuries. Founded in 762 AD by the Arab Muslim Caliph Al-Mansur, it was once the center of the Islamic Golden Age, renowned for its cultural and scientific achievements. The city's strategic location along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers made it a vital trading hub, attracting merchants and travelers from all corners of the world. By 1918, Baghdad had undergone numerous political and cultural transformations. The Ottoman Empire, which had ruled the city for centuries, had been defeated in World War I, and the League of Nations had mandated Iraq to the United Kingdom. The British administration, in turn, embarked on a series of modernization projects, including the construction of infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and water supply systems. The peaceful scene depicted in this photograph belies the tumultuous history of Baghdad, which would continue to unfold in the decades to come. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer for Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Tigris River flowed undisturbed through the heart of Baghdad, a city that has shaped the course of human history.
