EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1904, showcases a wide view of Grand Street in Baku, Azerbaijan. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the bustling urban life of this historic city. The grand street, now known as Neftchilar Avenue, is a major thoroughfare that forks into two directions, each lined with an eclectic mix of shops and buildings. In the foreground, we see a horse-drawn cart making its way along the cobblestone road, while in the background, trams glide smoothly along the tracks, a testament to the city's modern transportation system at the time. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the shops and buildings add to the visual richness of the scene. The architecture of the buildings reflects the unique blend of European and Middle Eastern influences that characterize Baku's urban landscape. The ornate facades of the shops, with their intricate patterns and decorative elements, stand in stark contrast to the more utilitarian structures of the tram stops and other infrastructure. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and culture of Baku during a time of great transformation. The wide view of the grand street invites us to explore the city's rich history and vibrant urban life, making it a must-see destination for history buffs and travel enthusiasts alike.
