EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the Times Office in Basra, Iraq, stands proudly amidst the sun-scorched streets of the Middle Eastern city during the First World War, around 1916. The image captures a moment in history when the world was embroiled in the Great War, and communication and media played a vital role in keeping the global population informed. The Times Office, an imposing structure with its tall, arched windows and intricate stonework, served as the Middle Eastern bureau for the renowned British newspaper, The Times. The building, located in the heart of the city, was a symbol of British influence and the reach of the global news media. The photograph presents a serene scene, with the sun casting long shadows on the empty streets, and the Times Office standing as a beacon of activity. Despite the war raging on, the office continued to function, providing essential news and updates to the world. The image underscores the resilience of communication and media during wartime, as well as the importance of maintaining a connection to the world, even in the most challenging of circumstances. The Times Office in Basra served as a vital link between the war front and the global population, providing accurate and timely information on the progress of the war and its impact on the region. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the role that media and communication played during the First World War and the enduring importance of these institutions in shaping our understanding of history. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was connected by the power of the written word and the determination of those who brought it to the masses.
