EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless tradition of Syrian women preparing and cooking flat bread, or "khobz," in Damascus during the 1920s. The image transports us back in time to a simpler era, where the art of bread making was an integral part of daily life. The women, dressed in traditional Middle Eastern garments, are deeply engrossed in their work, their faces reflecting a sense of focus and determination. The preparation of the flat bread involves rolling out the dough into thin, circular shapes, which are then placed on a large, domed hot stone. The women use long, wooden paddles to flip the bread as it cooks, ensuring an evenly golden brown crust. The process requires skill and precision, passed down through generations. The use of a hot stone for cooking bread is a common practice in the Middle East and is believed to impart a unique flavor and texture to the bread. The bread, once cooked, is removed from the stone and wrapped in a cloth to keep it warm and soft. This photograph is a beautiful testament to the rich cultural heritage of Syria and the enduring traditions that have been preserved through generations. It also highlights the importance of community and the role of women in maintaining these traditions, despite the passage of time and the challenges that come with it.
