This sepia-toned photograph from 1914 captures a unique moment in Syria's history - the world of silk worms. In this image, we are transported to an early morning scene where a basket full of wriggling silk worms eagerly awaits their morning meal. The delicate creatures seem almost restless, as if anticipating the nourishment that will sustain them throughout the day. The photographer skillfully captures the intricate details of these tiny creatures, showcasing their translucent bodies and fine threads they produce. It is fascinating to witness such a crucial stage in the silk production process, which has been deeply rooted in Syrian culture for centuries. This stereograph provides us with a glimpse into turn-of-the-century Syria and its rich tradition of silk production. Silk weaving has long been an integral part of Syrian heritage, contributing significantly to its economy and cultural identity.
