EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the picturesque fishing village of Metelin, also known as Makriyalo, situated on the northwestern coast of the Turkish island of Lesbos. The image, estimated to have been taken around 1906, offers a glimpse into the past when this quaint community thrived as a hub for local fishermen. The photograph reveals a serene scene of simple wooden houses clustered along the rocky shoreline, their whitewashed walls reflecting the clear blue waters of the Aegean Sea. Fishing boats, some with colorful sails, are docked at the shore, their masts forming an intriguing pattern against the backdrop of the village. The gentle curve of the beach, dotted with pebbles and small boulders, adds to the tranquil atmosphere. Metelin, now a part of Greece, was once a significant fishing village in the Ottoman Empire. The villagers were predominantly Greek Orthodox Christians, and their way of life revolved around the sea. The photograph not only encapsulates the beauty of this idyllic location but also provides a window into the rich cultural heritage and history of the region. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to imagine the daily routines of the villagers, their simple joys, and their deep connection to the land and the sea. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring charm of small coastal communities and the timeless allure of the sea.
