EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Basra, Iraq, between 1918 and 1939. The image showcases Ashar Creek, a prominent waterway that flows through the heart of this vibrant city. From an elevated view, we can see a picturesque vista of boats gracefully gliding along the creek's calm waters. The focus of the scene shifts towards the coffee shops lining both sides of Ashar Creek. These establishments serve as social hubs where locals gather to enjoy aromatic cups of coffee and engage in lively conversations. The awnings provide shade from the scorching Middle Eastern sun while adding charm to these traditional meeting places. Amidst this busy market setting, men can be seen going about their daily activities - some engaged in trade at nearby shops or browsing through various wares displayed outdoors. Their presence adds life and character to this snapshot frozen in time. Although captured by an unknown creator, this vintage postcard offers us a glimpse into Basra's rich history and cultural heritage during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of how transportation relied heavily on waterways like Ashar Creek for trade and travel purposes. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece from The Print Collector collection, let us appreciate its artistic value while immersing ourselves in the beauty and authenticity it conveys about life in Basra decades ago.
