EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling Quay Caucasus in Baku, Azerbaijan, circa 1908. The Mercury Steamship Company's impressive jetty extends into the Caspian Sea, with several ships moored, ready for departure or arrival. The Mercury Steamship Company was a significant player in the maritime industry during this period, connecting Baku to international markets and facilitating the export of Azerbaijan's abundant resources, including oil, wool, and grains. The quayside is a hive of activity, with workers loading and unloading barrels and other cargo using cranes and manual labor. The steamships represent the lifeline of the city, bringing goods, people, and news from around the world. The Caucasus Mountains in the background add a picturesque backdrop to the industrial scene, highlighting the unique blend of natural beauty and human ingenuity that characterized Baku during this era. The society of Baku during this time was diverse and cosmopolitan, with a mix of Azerbaijani, Russian, Persian, and European influences. The city was a melting pot of cultures, and the quayside was a testament to the vibrant exchange of ideas and commerce. The photograph captures a moment in history when Baku was at the forefront of trade and industry in the region, and the Mercury Steamship Company played a crucial role in connecting it to the wider world.
