EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken around the year 1906, we find ourselves transported back in time to the heart of Beirut, Lebanon's vibrant and culturally rich capital city. The scene unfolds at Place des Canons, a public square that once served as a popular gathering place for the city's residents and visitors. The square, adorned with lush greenery, is dominated by an impressive bandstand, where musicians once played lively tunes for the enjoyment of all. A grand fountain, surrounded by ornate ironwork, adds to the serene ambiance of the courtyard. In the background, the imposing Union Martyrs Monument stands tall, a testament to the city's storied past and the sacrifices made by its people. To the left, the majestic Ottoman-era Beirut Palace can be seen, its intricate architecture a reflection of the diverse cultural influences that have shaped the city. The palace, which now houses the National Museum of Beirut, is a reminder of the region's rich history and its role as a crossroads of civilizations. The photograph captures a sense of tranquility and community, as people go about their daily lives, children play, and families gather around the fountain. The scene is a poignant reminder of the enduring spirit of Beirut and its people, who have weathered countless challenges and continue to rebuild and thrive. This photograph, from the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the history and culture of this remarkable city and the resilient people who call it home.
