EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling fig industry in Smyrna (modern day Izmir in Turkey) back in 1886. The series of five images takes us on a journey through the various stages of fig production, from sorting and weighing to packing and waiting for loads. Each image tells a story of hard work, dedication, and precision that went into this historical trade.
In the first image, workers are seen meticulously sorting through freshly harvested figs, ensuring only the best make it to market. The second image shows them carefully weighing each batch with precision scales, guaranteeing accuracy in every transaction. Moving on to the third image, we witness the art of packing as workers expertly prepare crates filled with succulent figs ready for export.
The fourth image captures a moment of anticipation as workers wait eagerly for their shipments to be loaded onto trucks or ships bound for distant lands. Finally, in the fifth and final image, we see craftsmen skillfully making boxes and cases to protect these precious fruits during transit.
This series not only showcases the rich history of Smyrna's fig industry but also highlights the modern techniques used at that time. It is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era where manual labor and craftsmanship were essential components of everyday life.
