EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1902, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Tbilisi, Georgia, where the aroma of freshly baked bread wafts through the air. The image showcases the exterior of a Persian Bakery, a beloved establishment that once graced the city's central district. The bakery's facade is adorned with intricate Persian motifs, a testament to the rich cultural fusion that defines Tbilisi's unique identity. Huge, round flatbreads, known as "lavash," hang on strings outside the shop, drying in the sun before being sold to eager customers. The bakers, dressed in traditional attire, can be seen in the background, expertly kneading and shaping dough, their skilled hands a testament to the artisanal craftsmanship that goes into each loaf. The scene is a vibrant tableau of the daily life in Tbilisi during the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the city's rich history and its enduring connection to the culinary traditions of Persia and Central Asia. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the deep-rooted ties between Georgia and its Persian and Asian neighbors, a legacy that continues to shape the city's diverse and vibrant food culture. Today, visitors to Tbilisi can still find Persian bakeries that carry on the tradition of producing these delicious, hand-crafted flatbreads, offering a taste of history with every bite.
