EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a young boy stands silhouetted against the glowing sunset on the ancient harbor wall of Old Antalya, Turkey. The Taurus Mountains loom in the background, their peaks dusted with the first hints of evening shadows. The image, captured in the 1990s, transports us back in time to a simpler era. The harbor, a remnant of Antalya's rich history, is a bustling hub of activity, with fishing boats bobbing gently in the water and the sound of seagulls calling in the distance. The boy, dressed in casual attire, seems to be deep in thought as he gazes out at the water, perhaps lost in the beauty and tranquility of the scene before him. The street leading up to the harbor wall is lined with quaint, colorful buildings, their facades reflecting the warm glow of the setting sun. The atmosphere is one of calm and serenity, a perfect contrast to the hustle and bustle of modern life. This photograph, taken in the southern Turkish Riviera, is a beautiful testament to the timeless allure of the Mediterranean. The combination of the ancient harbor, the majestic mountains, and the young boy adds a sense of nostalgia and wonder, inviting us to imagine the stories and memories that lie within. The image, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a reminder of the power of photography to transport us to another place and time, and to capture the essence of a moment in history. Whether you're an avid traveler, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the world around us, this photograph is sure to inspire and delight.
