EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Iraq - cradle for baby" takes us back to the early 1920s, shortly after the creation of Iraq. The image showcases an old-fashioned cradle specifically designed for Arab babies. It was captured by Baghdad's Camera Studio Iraq, a collaboration between A Kerim and Hasso Bros, with Rotophot AG in Berlin overseeing production. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Arab civilization during this period. The intricate design of the cradle reflects the attention to detail and craftsmanship prevalent in traditional Arab culture. Its presence signifies not only a place for rest but also symbolizes love, care, and protection that parents bestowed upon their children. In this snapshot from the past, we witness a beautiful moment of tenderness as a female figure gently places her precious child into this lovingly crafted cot. This scene reminds us of the importance placed on family values within Iraqi society at that time. Furthermore, it provides insight into women's roles as caregivers within Middle Eastern communities during this era. Their nurturing nature is evident as they take charge of childcare responsibilities while upholding traditions passed down through generations. As we delve deeper into history through this remarkable photograph from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are transported to an era where simplicity intertwines with elegance – an era characterized by strong familial bonds and cultural pride among Iraqis. This print serves as both a historical artifact capturing moments long gone by and an artistic representation showcasing the beauty found in everyday life across different cultures throughout time.
