EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the ancient archways of Az Zubayr, Iraq, circa 1910s. Az Zubayr, the capital city of Al-Zubair District, is located in the Basra Governorate in southern Iraq. The city's name is also synonymous with the old Emirate of Zubair. In this image, the archways are bathed in the warm glow of the sun, casting long shadows on the sandy ground beneath. The intricate stonework of the arches is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. The archways served as entrances to the city, providing protection and welcoming visitors for centuries. Today, they stand as a reminder of the past, inviting us to imagine the stories and traditions that have unfolded beneath their arches. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back in time to a place of mystery and wonder.
