EDITORS COMMENTS
The Sheikh Gazal Market in Ashar, Basra, Iraq, 1925 captures the vibrant energy of a bustling bazaar in the heart of the Middle East. In this monochrome print by A Kerim, we are transported back to a time when trade and commerce thrived in the region. The image showcases a maze of buildings adorned with sun blinds and awnings, providing shelter from the scorching Iraqi sun. The market is teeming with people from all walks of life - locals and visitors alike - engrossed in their daily shopping rituals. The architectural details reflect the unique blend of traditional Arab design and influences from neighboring countries. Each building tells its own story through intricate carvings and ornate facades that have stood for centuries. As our eyes wander through the crowded streets, we can almost hear the lively chatter and haggling between buyers and sellers. The scent of exotic spices fills the air as vendors proudly display their colorful wares - textiles, jewelry, pottery, fruits, vegetables - creating an enticing visual feast for shoppers. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Iraq's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us that despite political turmoil or changing times, markets like Sheikh Gazal continue to be vital hubs where communities come together to exchange goods and stories.
