EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling harbor scene at Izmir, then known as Smyrna, in Turkey during the early 1900s. The Ottoman Empire's third largest city, Izmir was a significant commercial hub and an important port city. In this image, a multitude of boats of various sizes and shapes are moored up against the quay, their sails furled and masts leaning against the waterfront. The quayside teems with activity as men load and unload cargo from the boats, while others tend to their nets and fishing gear. A horse-drawn tram passes by on the nearby road, adding to the sense of movement and energy in the scene. The waterfront is dotted with small shops and cafes, where locals and travelers alike gather to socialize and conduct business. The harbor's calm waters reflect the clear blue sky, and the sun casts a warm glow over the scene. The photograph, taken in 1903, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Izmir during a time of great change and transition. The Ottoman Empire was beginning to modernize and adapt to the globalizing world, and Izmir was at the forefront of these developments. The city's vibrant harbor and bustling waterfront were key drivers of its economic growth and cultural exchange, making it a vital and dynamic place in the early 20th century.
