EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Kora Creek in Basra, Iraq, during the early to mid-20th century. The exact date and creator of this image remain unknown, but it is believed to have been taken between 1918 and 1939. The picture showcases a picturesque riverbank scene with moored boats gently swaying on the calm waters of Kora Creek. Lining the shore are tall palm trees that provide shade and add an exotic touch to the landscape. The monochrome effect enhances the timeless quality of this vintage photograph. Kora Creek's location in Basra, a city rich in history and culture, adds depth to this stunning composition. It offers viewers a glimpse into life in early 20th-century Iraq – a country known for its unique geography and Middle Eastern charm. Transportation played a vital role during this time period, as evidenced by the presence of various boats dotting the waterway. This image beautifully captures both nature's tranquility and human activity along Kora Creek. Preserved within an album of postcards from yesteryears, this print serves as a visual portal into another era – inviting us to travel back in time while appreciating the natural wonders that once graced our world.
