EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "BAGHDAD: TIGRIS RIVER, 1932" takes us back in time to the bustling city of Baghdad, Iraq. The image showcases a vibrant scene on the Tigris River as boats unload their cargo. It is a snapshot of an era when maritime transportation played a crucial role in the city's trade and commerce. In this picture, men can be seen diligently working alongside donkeys to transport goods from the boats onto the riverbank. Their determined expressions reflect their dedication to their work and highlight the importance of manual labor during that period. The rowboats gracefully glide through the calm waters while carrying produce and other items essential for daily life in Baghdad. The surrounding cityscape provides a glimpse into early 20th-century architecture with buildings lining both sides of the river. Streets filled with activity hint at a thriving urban center where people went about their daily routines. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Baghdad's rich history and its reliance on waterways for transportation and trade. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed over nearly nine decades while also reminding us of the enduring spirit of this ancient city on the banks of the Tigris River.
