EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a Royal Persian Feast, as it unfolded in Tehran, Iran, in the year 1913. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and historical significance of such gatherings, which were once an integral part of Iranian society. A group of Iranian men, dressed in traditional attire, are seen reveling in the joyous atmosphere of the festivities. The men, in a variety of states of sobriety, are engrossed in their conversations, laughter, and music. Some are holding and playing musical instruments, adding to the lively ambiance of the scene. At the center of the gathering, a hubble bubble pipe, also known as a hookah or a hubbly bubbly, is being enjoyed by a few men. The pipe, an iconic symbol of Middle Eastern culture, is used for smoking flavored tobacco and has been a popular social activity for centuries. Despite the common misconception that such gatherings were always teetotal, this photograph debunks that myth. Alcohol, although not as prevalent in modern-day Iranian culture, was once an integral part of such festivities. The men in the photograph are seen holding glasses filled with what appears to be wine or other alcoholic beverages, adding to the convivial mood of the gathering. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a unique insight into the historical traditions and customs of Iranian society during a time when such gatherings were an essential aspect of social life. The men, with their warm smiles and jovial expressions, invite us to join them in their celebration, transporting us back in time to an era of grandeur and opulence.
