EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Damascus, Grave of Fatima" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image was captured by Karl Grober (1885-1945) and is now part of a private collection. The photograph showcases the serene beauty of Damascus, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. In particular, it focuses on the grave of Fatima, an important historical figure whose significance is deeply rooted in Islamic tradition. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility as we see the tomb surrounded by lush greenery and delicate flowers. The play between light and shadow adds depth to this poignant scene. It's evident that Grober masterfully used his lens to capture not only the physicality but also the spiritual essence of this sacred place. This print originally appeared as an illustration for Palestine and Syria: The Country, The People, and The Landscape published in Via-Lens magazine in 1926. Its gravure printing technique further enhances its vintage charm. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our past, we are reminded of how history intertwines with art to create lasting impressions. This photograph serves as a testament to both human creativity and cultural heritage—a window into a different era that continues to captivate us today.
