EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "View of Mount Parnassus, 1913" offers a glimpse into the enchanting beauty of the Near East in the early 20th century. The image showcases a breathtaking mountain range that stretches across the horizon, with Mount Parnassus majestically towering above all else. In this remote location, surrounded by nature's grandeur, we see a group of local people dressed in traditional costumes. The composition features men, women, and children who are adorned in vibrant attire that reflects their rich cultural heritage. A lady stands at the forefront of the frame, exuding grace and elegance in her traditional dress. Beside her is a man wearing an equally striking costume while holding onto his child's hand. This snapshot captures not only their distinctive clothing but also their sense of pride and identity. As we delve deeper into this monochrome portrait taken by Robert Hitchens for his book "The Near East" we are transported to another time and place - Greece's Delphi region. The concept behind this photograph is to showcase both the geographical features of Western Asia and its local inhabitants' traditions. Through this evocative image from Hodder & Stoughton Ltd. , viewers can appreciate how culture intertwines with natural landscapes to create something truly extraordinary. It serves as a reminder that even amidst vast mountains like Mount Parnassus, humanity finds ways to celebrate its roots through traditional dress and customs.
