EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FVQ-F-011139-0000" we are transported back in time to the bustling old market square of Sarajevo. The scene is set somewhere between 1890 and 1910, a period when tradition and commerce intertwined harmoniously. The focal point of the image is a group of men dressed in exquisite traditional attire, their vibrant clothing reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Bosnia. Engaged in their daily work, they can be seen meticulously weighing sacks of cereals with an ancient scale instrument. Their weathered faces tell stories of hard work and dedication as they ensure fair trade within the marketplace. The architecture surrounding them adds another layer to this historical narrative. A magnificent structure stands tall behind them, its intricate design showcasing the architectural brilliance prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to Sarajevo's importance as a hub for commercial activities. Amidst all this hustle and bustle, our attention is drawn towards one particular food vendor who captures our imagination. With his turban-like headdress adorning his head, he exudes an air of authority while skillfully attending to his customers' needs. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also provides us with glimpses into various aspects of life during that period - from fashion choices such as backpacks or knapsacks worn by some individuals to objects like sacks and bags used for transporting goods. Taken by P. Z. , part of Photoglob & Co. , this remarkable print from Alinari allows us to appreciate the beauty found within everyday scenes from history without mentioning any specific commercial use associated with it.
