EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the RAF taking over the policing of Iraq. The aerial view showcases Hillah, located approximately 60 miles from Baghdad, on September 30th, 1922. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when colonial powers exerted their influence across vast territories. The image evokes a sense of power and control as the mighty RAF assumes its role in maintaining order and security. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. It allows us to focus on the intricate details of Hillah's landscape while contemplating how much has changed since that pivotal moment nearly a century ago. As we observe this remarkable scene unfold from above, it serves as a reminder of Europe's involvement in shaping global affairs during the early 20th century. This particular image is part of Central News' extensive collection housed within Europeana Photography. With each glance at this compelling piece of visual history, we are reminded not only of our past but also urged to reflect upon our present circumstances. It prompts us to question notions of power dynamics and international relations while appreciating the artistry captured by Central News through their lens.
