EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1905, transports us back in time to the bustling heart of Zurich, Switzerland. The image, captured near the iconic Gemusebrucke (Zucchini Bridge), showcases a vibrant square filled with an array of market stalls. The crisp autumn air seems to hang heavy with the scent of ripe fruits, fresh vegetables, and the tantalizing aroma of local delicacies. The marketgoers, dressed in their finest attire, move about the square with a sense of purpose and excitement. Children playfully dart between the stalls, their laughter echoing through the air. Vendors call out to potential customers, enticing them with the freshest produce and most delectable treats. The Gemusebrucke, a beautiful wooden bridge adorned with intricate carvings, stands proudly in the background. Its name, derived from the Swiss German word for zucchini, pays homage to the bridge's historical significance as a major produce market. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Zurich during a bygone era. The market square, with its lively atmosphere and picturesque setting, remains a cherished piece of Zurich's heritage. Today, visitors can still experience the charm and vibrancy of the city's markets, continuing the tradition that began over a century ago.
