EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "JORDAN RIVER, c1930" captures a mesmerizing view of the Sheik Hussein Bridge on the Jordan River. Taken during the early 1930s, this image provides a glimpse into the historical significance of this border between Palestine and Jordan. The photo showcases a serene landscape with lush green grass stretching towards the horizon. The reflection of the bridge in the calm waters of the river adds an element of tranquility to this scene. It is fascinating to witness how nature seamlessly blends with human-made structures in this picturesque setting. During that time, Palestine was under British Mandate control, while Transjordan (now known as Jordan) existed as an autonomous region within Greater Syria. This photograph serves as a reminder of their coexistence and shared history along this vital crossing point. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it sparks curiosity about what life was like for those who traversed these lands almost a century ago. The Sheik Hussein Bridge stands tall as both a physical connection between two nations and a symbolic representation of unity amidst political boundaries. Preserved by The Granger Collection's art archive, this print allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical value. It offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our past and gain insights into how our world has evolved over time.
