EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, transporting us back to the bustling streets of Skopje, Macedonia in 1939. The image, titled "Dervishes in Skopje," showcases a group of dervishes, or Sufi Muslims, performing their spiritual dance in the heart of the city. Dervishes were known for their ecstatic practices, which included whirling and chanting as a means of reaching a state of spiritual enlightenment. Their presence in Skopje was a testament to the rich cultural diversity of the region during the 1930s. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of this vibrant community, as onlookers gather to witness the dervishes' mesmerizing performance. The image is filled with a sense of energy and movement, with the dervishes' flowing robes and the swirling patterns of their dance creating a dynamic visual display. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the historical significance of Skopje, which has been shaped by a complex tapestry of influences over the centuries. The city has been ruled by various empires and powers, including the Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, and Yugoslavs, leaving a rich cultural heritage that continues to be celebrated today. The photograph was taken in 1939, a time when Europe was on the brink of war. The serene scene captured in the image stands in stark contrast to the turbulent events that were soon to unfold. Today, the photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving cultural traditions and the power of art to transport us to another time and place.
