EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dated 1919, depicts an enchanting scene of two Saluki dogs and a Persian man in the heart of a desert landscape. The Salukis, also known as Persian Gazellehounds or Fácon, are ancient breeds originating from the Middle East, renowned for their grace, speed, and agility. The man, dressed in traditional Persian attire, holds the leashes of the two eager Salukis, their eyes fixed on the horizon and their bodies straining, ready for the chase. The desert, with its golden sand dunes and vast expanse, serves as the perfect backdrop for these magnificent creatures, who were bred for hunting gazelles and other prey in the arid terrain. Intriguingly, the man in the photograph is also accompanied by a falcon perched on his wrist. Falconry, an ancient hunting tradition in the Middle East, was a popular pastime among the Persian nobility. The combination of Salukis and falconry in this image highlights the rich cultural heritage and interconnectedness of hunting traditions in the region. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and evocative setting, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a world of desert landscapes, ancient breeds, and the enduring bond between man and nature.
