EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Meeting of Past and Future: The Evolution of Transportation in Izmir (Smyrna), Turkey" 2.. This postcard photograph, taken in the vibrant city of Izmir (Smyrna), Turkey, showcases an intriguing juxtaposition of transportation types spanning centuries. In the foreground, an ox-drawn cart, adorned with traditional Ottoman patterns, harks back to the earliest known wheeled transportation. The oxen, their harnesses jingling softly, seem to carry the weight of history itself. Moving further into the scene, a pilot, clad in aviator gear, stands near a biplane, its sleek wings gleaming in the sun. This modern marvel of technology, awaiting refueling, symbolizes the future of transportation. The contrast between the ancient and the contemporary is striking, yet they coexist harmoniously in this bustling Turkish city. The faint squeak of the three-black wheel can still be heard in every village across Anatolia, a testament to the enduring legacy of the past. As the world evolves, so too does transportation, with each innovation building upon the foundations laid by those who came before. Izmir, a city steeped in history, continues to embrace the past while embracing the future. From the earliest known wheeled transportation to the modern biplane, the story of transportation in this ancient empire is one of progress and resilience. This evocative image, brought to you by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich history of transportation in Turkey and serves as a reminder of the inexorable march of time.
