EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the historical city of Izmir, Turkey - once known as Smyrna during the Ottoman Empire. In the image, a Camel Train can be seen taking a break to drink from the waters of the Melez River, which flows towards Izmir. The majestic camels and their drivers pause for a moment of respite in this serene setting.
The Melez River has played a significant role in the history of Izmir, but sadly in recent years it has become heavily polluted. Despite its current state, this photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that is deeply rooted in this region.
The ancient cypress trees lining the riverbank provide a picturesque backdrop to this timeless scene. The camels with their intricate saddles and ornate decorations stand out against the tranquil waters of the Melez River.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the sounds of bustling trade routes and feel the weight of centuries-old traditions carried by these noble creatures. This photograph is not just a snapshot in time; it is a window into an era long past, where camel trains were essential for transportation and commerce in Izmir.
Let yourself be transported back to another time as you admire this stunning print from Mary Evans Prints Online.
