EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Betaween Avenue in Baghdad, Iraq, comes alive with the hustle and bustle of the 1950s. The image, captured by an unidentified photographer and part of the Grenville Collins Postcard Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era of simple pleasures and vibrant energy. Betaween Avenue, also known as Battaween Street, is a major thoroughfare in Baghdad that stretches from the Tigris River to the central market area. In this photograph, the street is filled with an array of vehicles, from bicycles and motorcycles to cars and buses, all navigating the busy streets with a sense of purpose and determination. The traffic is dense, but there is a sense of order and rhythm to it, with drivers and pedestrians moving in a choreographed dance. The sidewalks are lined with shops and cafes, their windows displaying an intriguing mix of goods for sale. The atmosphere is lively and bustling, with people of all ages and walks of life going about their daily business. The trees along the street are in full bloom, their branches heavy with leaves and flowers, adding a touch of natural beauty to the urban scene. Despite the challenges and hardships that Iraq faced during the 1950s, this photograph captures a moment of joy and vitality. It is a reminder of a time when life moved at a different pace, and the simple pleasures of everyday life were cherished. Today, Betaween Avenue remains a vital part of Baghdad's urban fabric, a testament to the resilience and spirit of the Iraqi people.
