EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases a scene of everyday life in Thessaloniki, Greece. The image focuses on a group of cobblers diligently working beneath the grand Triumphal Arch of Galerius, a remarkable 4th-century Roman monument. The arch, part of the Rotunda Complex, is a testament to the city's rich history and cultural significance. The cobblers, their faces etched with concentration, are seen meticulously repairing shoes on the cobblestones, surrounded by the intricately sculpted marble slabs of the arch. The masonry and cores of the arch, adorned with intricate designs and remnants of ancient wars, create a striking contrast against the simple tools and worn clothing of the cobblers. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Salonika, was a bustling city during this period, with a diverse population and a thriving economy. The presence of the cobblers beneath the arch illustrates the interplay between the old and the new, as the ancient monument continues to be a part of the daily life of the city's residents. The Triumphal Arch of Galerius, built by Emperor Galerius in 297 AD to commemorate his military victories, is a symbol of Thessaloniki's Roman heritage. The cobblers, with their quiet industry, add a human element to the grandeur of the monument, reminding us of the enduring spirit of the city and its people.
