EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken circa 1910s, the Russian Consul General, accompanied by Greek Orthodox clergy members, is captured in a moment of serene contemplation on the banks of the Orontes River in Hama, Syria. The consul general, dressed in formal attire and wearing a hat adorned with a Russian imperial crest, sits in a traditional wooden rowing boat, while the clergy members stand nearby, dressed in their robes and holding prayer books. The backdrop of the scene is the majestic waterwheel, its large wooden blades turning swiftly in the fast-flowing river. Hama, an ancient city renowned for its rich history and cultural heritage, is famous for its 17 norias, or waterwheels, which have been used for irrigation since 1100 BC. These impressive structures, which once played a crucial role in supplying water to the city's gardens and orchards, now exist primarily as an aesthetic traditional show, attracting visitors from around the world. The Ottoman-era aqueduct, which can be seen in the background of the photograph, further underscores the historical significance of the scene. The consul general and the clergy members appear to be in deep conversation, their focused expressions revealing the importance of their discussion. The waterwheel, with its steady, rhythmic motion, adds a sense of tranquility to the scene, creating a striking visual contrast between the past and the present. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, capturing the essence of a time when diplomacy and tradition intersected on the banks of the Orontes River in Hama, Syria.
