EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling scene of oil extraction in Baku, Russia, between 1903 and 1906. At the turn of the 20th century, this region in modern-day Azerbaijan was responsible for nearly half of the world's oil production. The image showcases an industrial landscape dominated by towering derricks and sprawling oil fields. In this snapshot from history, we see a group of hardworking men toiling away at the oil rig. Their presence highlights the significance of manual labor in this booming industry. Each worker is engrossed in their task, their faces etched with determination as they contribute to the country's growing petroleum industry. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph, emphasizing its historical importance. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those early days of extracting precious resources from beneath our feet. Preserved within the collection of the Russian State Film and Photo Archive in Krasnogorsk, this image offers us a glimpse into a pivotal era that shaped both Baku's destiny and global energy markets. As we admire these anonymous workers against an industrial backdrop, it becomes evident that their efforts laid down foundations for progress that continue to impact our lives today.
