EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a vibrant and multicultural scene in Thessaloniki, Greece, circa 1916. The image features a group of Dervishes, or Sufi mystics, performing their whirling dance in the foreground. Dressed in traditional robes and tall, pointed hats, they move in a mesmerizing circle, lost in their spiritual trance. In the background, a lemonade seller, an itinerant vendor, calls out to passing foreign soldiers and sailors, offering them refreshing drinks from his glass jug. The soldiers, hailing from various countries, are seen in their uniforms, some resting, others engaging in conversation with the locals. The bustling street scene reflects the rich cultural diversity of Thessaloniki, a city long known for its multicultural heritage. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of global travel and exploration.
