EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing a moment of silk production in Lebanon. The image showcases the intricate process of loosening cocoon fiber and winding it onto frames at a silk mill in Beyrout, Syria (now known as Beirut, Lebanon). The sepia-toned print exudes an air of nostalgia as we witness the skilled workers meticulously handling the delicate fibers. Their hands move with precision and expertise, highlighting their deep knowledge of this ancient craft. The interior of the factory is filled with activity - a testament to the bustling textile industry that once thrived in this region. The scene is both mesmerizing and awe-inspiring; it transports us to a bygone era when manual labor was at its peak. As we gaze upon this stereograph from 1913, we can't help but appreciate the artistry involved in creating such exquisite fabrics. Each thread tells a story - one that connects us not only to history but also to cultures far beyond our own. This stunning photograph serves as a reminder of Lebanon's rich heritage in silk manufacture and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to perfecting this timeless craft.
