EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Samarkand, a city steeped in rich history and cultural significance. The image showcases a traditional Sart house, dating back to around 1910, which served as the dwelling for Turkic-speaking Muslims residing in central Asia. The architectural beauty of this adobe structure is evident in its intricate design and craftsmanship. Its exterior exudes an air of elegance and simplicity, reflecting the early 20th-century style prevalent during that time. The photographer, Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii, skillfully captures every detail with precision. In this street scene from turn-of-the-century Samarkand, we catch a glimpse of daily life unfolding. A woman stands near the entrance of the Sart house, perhaps going about her daily routine or simply observing passersby. Her presence adds a touch of humanity to an otherwise static scene. Prokudin-Gorskii's lens transports us back in time to experience the vibrant culture and architecture that defined Uzbekistan during this era. This photograph serves as a testament to his talent for capturing not only physical structures but also moments frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable print by Granger Art on Demand titled "Samarkand: Sart House" we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these Turkic-speaking people who shaped their surroundings with such grace and artistry.
