EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Khitrov marketplace in Moscow, Russia during the 1900s. Once a vibrant hub of trade and commerce, this square had transformed into a haunting place where thousands of unemployed workers and criminals sought refuge. The image, preserved in the collection of the Institute for the History of Material Culture in St Petersburg, offers a glimpse into a bygone era. The photograph captures the exterior scene with remarkable detail. We see people standing amidst dilapidated buildings, their worn faces reflecting years of hardship and poverty. The market itself appears weathered but still functional, showcasing remnants of its former glory. This snapshot transports us to an era when life was tough for many Russians. It serves as a reminder that even in prosperous cities like Moscow, pockets of extreme poverty existed. The monochrome tones add depth to this narrative, evoking a sense of nostalgia for times long gone. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded that every city has its own story - one filled with triumphs and struggles alike. This photograph invites us to reflect on our collective past while appreciating how far society has come since then.
