EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling energy of Hamidiye Avenue in Izmit, Turkey, circa 1907. The tree-lined avenue, named after Sultan Abdulhamid II, is a vibrant hub of activity with the railway running through its heart. Izmit, also known as Kocaeli, Astacus, or Nicomedia, is a historic city located 87 km southeast of Istanbul. With a rich history dating back to 712 BC, Izmit served as the Eastern and most senior capital city of the Roman Empire between 286-324 AD. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique blend of European and Ottoman architectural styles that define the city. The railway, a symbol of modernity and progress, cuts through the heart of the old quarter, connecting Izmit to the wider world. However, this image also serves as a poignant reminder of the city's tumultuous history. In 1999, Izmit was devastated by a catastrophic earthquake measuring 7.4 on the Richter scale. The disaster claimed the lives of more than 19,000 people and left many more homeless. The photograph, therefore, stands as a testament to the resilience and strength of the people of Izmit, who continue to rebuild and restore their beloved city.
