EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the Saint Sophia Quarter in Nicosia, Cyprus, is showcased in all its timeless beauty. The image, sent as a postcard to a friend by the Duchess of Westminster, Sally Grosvenor (1909-1990), dates back to the 1950s, transporting us back in time to an era of simpler pleasures. At the heart of the scene lies the magnificent Saint Sophia Cathedral, a stunning architectural marvel that has stood the test of time. Its grand dome, adorned with intricate patterns, dominates the skyline, casting long shadows over the narrow, winding streets below. The cathedral, a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture, has been a place of worship since the 4th century and is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Cyprus. The Saint Sophia Quarter, with its labyrinthine layout, is a feast for the eyes. The rooftops, dotted with satellite dishes and laundry hanging to dry, add a touch of authenticity to the scene, while the warm tones of the buildings' facades lend a sense of coziness and charm. The photograph captures the essence of a community that has thrived for generations, with people going about their daily lives amidst the ancient ruins and modern structures. The image also offers a glimpse into the past, with the absence of modern conveniences and the simple pleasures of life taking center stage. The Saint Sophia Quarter, with its unique blend of history, culture, and community spirit, continues to captivate visitors from all corners of the world, making it a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Cyprus. This photograph, sent by the Duchess of Westminster, serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty and allure of this enchanting quarter, frozen in time in the 1950s.
