Arab Baghdad Cafe Iraq Kazimain Turban Headgear
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the Arab cafe in Kazimain, Iraq, during the years 1917-1919. The image captures a slice of life from early 20th century Baghdad, under British rule. In this bustling scene, men wearing traditional headdresses and turbans gather outside the café's grand building. The architecture of the café reflects both local influences and British colonial design elements. Its exterior stands as a testament to the blending of cultures that occurred during this time period. The monochrome filter adds an air of nostalgia to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. The men depicted in the photo exude a sense of camaraderie as they engage in conversation or perhaps enjoy their daily rituals at this popular gathering spot. Their presence gives us a glimpse into the social fabric of Iraqi society at that time. Preserved by The Print Collector, this remarkable image offers us a window into history - it allows us to reflect on how much has changed since those days while also reminding us of our shared human experiences across different eras and cultures.
