EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of young Turkish children gathered in the bustling city of Podgorica, Montenegro in 1913. Podgorica, the capital and largest city of Montenegro, was a melting pot of diverse cultures and communities during this period. The Young Turks, a political movement advocating for the political and social advancement of ethnic Turks, had a significant presence in the city. The children in the photograph, dressed in traditional Turkish attire, are seen engaged in an animated conversation, their faces filled with curiosity and excitement. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of Turkish children in Podgorica during a time of political and social change. The city, situated at the confluence of the Ribnica and Morača rivers, is depicted in the background, with its bustling streets and vibrant architecture reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Montenegro. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the history and diversity of Podgorica and Montenegro during the early 20th century. It invites us to reflect on the experiences of these young Turkish children and the broader historical context of the Young Turk movement, which played a significant role in shaping the political landscape of the Balkans. The image is a testament to the resilience and vitality of the Turkish community in Montenegro and serves as an important historical record.
