EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to 1932 in Iraq's al-Qayyarah region, specifically the Gayara area. The image captures a fascinating scene of bituminous wells and pot-holes that were prevalent in this area during that time. In the foreground, we see several bituminous pot-holes scattered across the landscape, showcasing their unique formation caused by natural oil seepage. These geological wonders are surrounded by a sense of mystery and intrigue as they stand as testament to the rich natural resources present in this part of Mosul. Adding depth to the composition is a building belonging to concessioners, which can be seen faintly in the background. This structure serves as a reminder of human intervention amidst nature's marvels, highlighting how these wells were being utilized for commercial purposes during that era. The historical significance of this photograph cannot be overstated. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in Iraq's history when its oil industry was still developing and evolving. Through this lens captured by Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how these bituminous wells shaped not only the local landscape but also played a crucial role in shaping Iraq's economy. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, let us appreciate both its artistic value and its ability to transport us through time while reminding us of our connection with nature and our constant pursuit for progress.
