EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling harbor of Thessaloniki, Greece, in the early 1900s. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonika or Salonica, is the second largest city in Greece and has a rich history that spans over 2,300 years. In this image, the harbor teems with activity, with ships of various sizes and shapes anchored in the water, their masts casting long shadows on the calm waters. In the background, the distinctive white tower of the Church of Saint Demetrios looms over the city, a symbol of Thessaloniki's religious and cultural heritage. The tower, which dates back to the 14th century, is a popular tourist attraction and a reminder of the city's long and complex history. The photograph also reveals the vibrant commercial activity of the city, with merchants and traders haggling over goods in the foreground, and the bustling markets and shops that line the waterfront. Thessaloniki's harbor was a major hub for trade and commerce in the early 1900s, connecting Greece to Europe and the Middle East. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a bustling and dynamic city that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
