EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of a street porter in Thessaloniki, Greece, circa 1916. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Thessalonika, is the second-largest city in Greece and a major cultural melting pot. In this image, a porter is laboriously carrying a large, heavy crate or wooden box on his back, his badge identifying him as an employee of the city's port. His hunched posture and furrowed brow reveal the immense effort required to transport such a considerable load. The enormous weight strains his back, and one can only imagine the discomfort and potential backache that comes with this arduous work. Despite the challenging conditions, the porter's determination and resilience are evident. He is part of the city's rich history, contributing to the transportation of goods and the bustling activity of the port. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily lives of the people who lived and worked in Thessaloniki over a century ago. Thessaloniki's diverse population, which includes Christians, Jews, and Muslims, has shaped its unique character. The city's history is marked by various influences, from the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman empires to the modern era. This photograph is a testament to the city's enduring spirit and the hardworking individuals who have contributed to its vibrant past and present.
