EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we witness a significant moment in history that holds both hope and disappointment. The image captures General Hadi Pasha of Turkey as he signs the never-ratified treaty of peace between Turkey and the Allies at Sevres, France on August 10th, 1920. This treaty aimed to establish an independent Kurdish state within the Ottoman Empire. The solemn expression on General Hadi Pasha's face reflects the weight of responsibility he carries in shaping the destiny of his people. Surrounding him are men who share his vision for a united Kurdistan, their determination evident in their eyes. They stand together as advocates for statehood and independence. However, despite their efforts, fate had different plans for the Kurds. The treaty they signed was never ratified, leaving them without the promised land they yearned for. It is a poignant reminder of shattered dreams and unfulfilled aspirations. This photograph serves as a testament to diplomacy's early struggles during this tumultuous period in history. It encapsulates not only political negotiations but also highlights the resilience and unwavering spirit of those fighting for self-determination. As we gaze upon this historic print from Granger Art on Demand, let us reflect on how it represents an era when nations were redefined while others were denied existence – reminding us that even amidst setbacks, human perseverance prevails against all odds.
