EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic Nobel Brothers oil wells at Baku, Azerbaijan. Taken in 1916 and published as part of a set of cigarette cards titled "Mining" this image showcases the remarkable landscape and industrial prowess of the region. Set against a backdrop of majestic mountains and a serene sky filled with fluffy clouds, the scene exudes tranquility despite its association with heavy industry. The towering structures of the oil wells stand proudly, showcasing advanced technology for their time. The rows of factories and stacks illustrate the scale and magnitude of mining operations in Baku. In this snapshot from history, we witness workers going about their day amidst an architectural marvel that blends harmoniously with nature. The non-urban setting emphasizes environmental conservation efforts even during an era driven by fuel and power generation. The significance of sustainable resources is evident as these oil wells represent both natural recourses harnessed for human progress and power in nature itself. This horizontal composition highlights not only the building exteriors but also includes people in the background, reminding us that it takes collective effort to drive such industries forward. As we delve into this piece from 1916, we are transported back to a time when industry was booming, architecture was innovative, landscapes were cherished, and history was being made in every frame captured by Universal Images Group (UIG).
