EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1910s, two Arab falconers proudly display their avian companions in the desert landscape of Saudi Arabia. The traditional attire of the falconers adds to the authenticity of the scene, with intricately designed robes and headdresses adorning their bodies. The older falconer showcases an impressive collection of Peregrine Falcons, one perched gracefully on his shoulder, another on his arm, and a third balancing precariously on his turban. Falconry, an ancient hunting tradition in the Arabian Peninsula, dates back to over 4,000 years. It was a cherished pastime for the nobility and a symbol of wealth and power. The Peregrine Falcon, with its incredible speed and agility, was the preferred bird of prey for falconers due to its exceptional hunting abilities. The falconers in this photograph exude a sense of pride and connection with their birds. Their eyes meet those of their falcons, a testament to the deep bond that exists between the hunter and the hunted. The desert backdrop, with its vast expanse of sand and the clear blue sky, adds to the serene and timeless beauty of the image. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Saudi Arabia and the ancient art of falconry. It transports us to a bygone era, where the desert landscape, the traditional attire, and the falconers with their magnificent birds come together in perfect harmony.
