EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Samarkand: Traders, c1910" takes us back in time to the bustling heart of ancient Samarkand. The image captures a moment in history when Registan, the central square of this historic city, was teeming with traders from all walks of life. Photographed by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii around 1910, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the vibrant trade scene that characterized turn-of-the-century Samarkand. In the foreground stands a man, his face weathered by years of commerce and exchange. Dressed in traditional Uzbek attire, he exudes an air of wisdom and experience. The composition transports us to another era as we imagine ourselves amidst the hustle and bustle of merchants bartering their goods under the scorching sun. The architecture surrounding them showcases intricate details that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Samarkand. Prokudin-Gorskii's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to this historical tableau, emphasizing both the individuality of each trader and their collective presence within Registan. Through his lens, we are reminded not only of Samarkand's importance as a trading hub but also its role as a melting pot where diverse cultures intersected. This print serves as a visual testament to the enduring legacy left behind by these enterprising traders who shaped Samarkand's identity at the dawn of modernity.
