EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of merchants selling mother-of-pearl necklaces in the bustling market of Bethlehem, Israel during the 1910s. The merchants, dressed in traditional Middle Eastern attire, are seated cross-legged on the ground with baskets filled to the brim with intricately designed necklaces and rosaries. The mother-of-pearl beads, sourced from the Red Sea, glint in the sunlight, reflecting their iridescent beauty. The merchants' focused expressions and outstretched hands invite potential customers to browse their wares, creating a lively and engaging atmosphere. The market, teeming with activity and color, serves as the backdrop to this scene of trade and commerce. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Bethlehem and the vibrant trading traditions that have long defined this historic city.
