EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tender moment between an elderly Jewish couple, likely residents of Thessaloniki, Greece, around the year 1916. The city, then known as Salonica or Salonika, was a vibrant and diverse cultural melting pot, with a significant Jewish population. The man, dressed in a winter coat and wearing a red fez hat, holds a rosary beads in his hand, suggesting his religious devotion. His wife, bundled up in a heavy coat, gazes at him with a loving expression. The couple's age and the worn look of their clothing add to the sense of history and nostalgia. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich Jewish heritage of Thessaloniki, which dates back over 2,000 years. The city's Jewish community was one of the largest in Europe, and its members made significant contributions to the fields of commerce, arts, and scholarship. Today, Thessaloniki's Jewish history is preserved through various museums, synagogues, and cultural institutions, serving as a reminder of the city's diverse past.
