EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Hamadan, Iran, circa 1926. The image showcases a magnificent caravanserai, an ancient roadside inn that provided shelter and facilities for travelers along the Silk Road. Hamadan is not only the capital city of Hamadan Province but also holds the distinction of being one of the oldest Iranian cities and among the oldest in the world. This historic significance is evident in every architectural detail captured within this frame. The grand archway stands tall as a testament to Persian craftsmanship, while camels, donkeys, and mules can be seen patiently waiting outside with their cargos. People from all walks of life are present - merchants haggling over goods, weary travelers seeking rest, and locals going about their daily routines. The alcove on one side adds depth to this scene as it invites our imagination to wander through its mysterious corridors. It's fascinating how transport played such a vital role during this era; these animals were essential for trade routes connecting distant lands. Tom Grant's expertly preserved photograph transports us back to an era where commerce thrived amidst architectural marvels like this caravanserai. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and cultural heritage that has shaped civilizations throughout time.
