EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Peter Stone, we are transported back to the bustling streets of Saigon in 1973. The midday heat is palpable as a dedicated stall holder tends to his vibrant array of flowers and shrubs at the Saigon flowers market. With sweat glistening on his brow, he diligently waters each delicate plant with a worn watering can. This particular time of year holds great significance for the Vietnamese people as they prepare to celebrate Tet, their traditional New Year. Apricot, Plum, and Peach blossoms take center stage during these festivities, adorning homes across the country in colorful displays. These beautiful blooms symbolize new beginnings and prosperity for the coming year. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the resilience and dedication exhibited by individuals like this stall holder who work tirelessly even amidst sweltering temperatures. Their commitment ensures that locals have access to nature's beauty despite challenging circumstances. Stone's photograph not only captures a moment but also encapsulates an entire era - Vietnam in the 1970s. It serves as a visual reminder of how daily life continued amidst political turmoil and war-torn surroundings. This image transports us back through time while simultaneously celebrating the timeless beauty found within everyday moments like tending to plants on a scorching day at Saigon's flower market.
