EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to Iraq in 1925, where we catch a glimpse of a Kurdish lady adorned in her finest traditional costume. The artist, A Kerim, skillfully captures the essence of this Middle Eastern beauty as she proudly poses for the camera. Dressed in an exquisite black Persian silk dress, this Kurdish woman radiates elegance and grace. Her attire is accentuated by a stunning silver belt that cinches her waist perfectly. But it is her necklace that truly catches our attention - amber beads delicately strung together with Turkish gold coins attached, creating a mesmerizing display of craftsmanship. The intricate details of her headdress further enhance her allure. With every element meticulously chosen, from the fabric to the jewelry, this ensemble showcases not only her impeccable taste but also reflects the rich cultural heritage of Kurdistan. Through this photograph, we are transported to a time when fashion was an art form and personal style spoke volumes about one's identity. It serves as a reminder of the vibrant history and traditions that have shaped Iraq's diverse population. A true gem from 20th-century photography, this print by A Kerim offers us an intimate glimpse into the lives and fashions of women during this era. As we admire its monochrome beauty today, let us celebrate the resilience and beauty embodied by women like this Kurdish lady who continue to inspire generations through their timeless elegance.
