EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to a typical street in Baghdad, captured between the years 1918 and 1939. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. The photograph is part of an album of postcards that provides a glimpse into life during the early 20th century in Arabia. The scene depicts a bustling avenue filled with local people going about their day. Men and women dressed in traditional Middle Eastern attire can be seen strolling along the road, showcasing the fashion trends of that era. A lady wearing a niqab walks gracefully beside a gentleman, while others ramble through the sand-covered streets. The architectural beauty of Baghdad is showcased by the buildings lining both sides of the street. These structures exude charm with their intricate exteriors, reflecting elements of traditional design prevalent in this region. As we observe this vintage print, we are transported to another time and place - one where tradition meets modernity amidst the vibrant streetscape. This evocative snapshot offers us a unique window into Iraqi history and culture during those transformative decades.
