EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "All for Abdullas - Roulette, 1927" we are transported back to the vibrant nightlife of the roaring twenties. The image, originally featured in The Sphere magazine on August 27,1927, captures a group of men and women engrossed in the thrilling game of roulette. Set against an elegant interior backdrop, the scene is filled with anticipation as players watch intently while the roulette wheel spins. Cigarette smoke swirls through the air, adding to the atmosphere of excitement and sophistication that permeates every corner of this bustling room. The advertisement for Abdulla cigarettes takes center stage in this snapshot of time. With its bold lettering and Western script, it serves as a reminder that even amidst leisurely pastimes like gambling, commerce always finds its way into our lives. This monochrome masterpiece not only showcases a momentary escape from reality but also highlights how art intertwines with everyday life. From literature to caricature, poetry to profession – all aspects merge seamlessly within this visual narrative. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph nearly a century later, we can't help but be captivated by its timeless charm. It stands as a testament to an era defined by glamour and indulgence; where people sought refuge from their daily routines in nights filled with games of chance and camaraderie.
