EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the joy and innocence of childhood in the Middle Eastern city of Basra, Iraq, during the 1910s. The image, taken around the year 1918, depicts a group of boys and girls playing and laughing in the dusty streets, surrounded by the low-rise buildings typical of the region. The children, dressed in simple clothing, seem oblivious to the world around them as they engage in their games, their smiles reflecting the happiness and freedom of their moment. The photograph offers a rare glimpse into the everyday life of children in Basra during this period, providing a contrast to the more familiar images of conflict and turmoil that have come to define the region in more recent times. The buildings in the background, with their arched windows and intricate brickwork, offer a glimpse into the architectural heritage of the city, which has been shaped by a rich and complex history. Despite the passage of time and the many changes that have taken place in Basra and Iraq as a whole, this photograph serves as a reminder of the universal experiences of childhood and the enduring power of joy and happiness to transcend the challenges and hardships of daily life.
