EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in Iraq in 1925, we see a sheikh indulging in the renowned Arab coffee. The artist, A Kerim, beautifully captures the essence of Middle Eastern culture and hospitality through this portrait. The sheikh is depicted wearing traditional attire, adorned with a keffiyeh headdress that symbolizes his status and authority. His dignified presence exudes power and wisdom as he savors every sip of the aromatic beverage. The intricate details on his dress reflect the rich heritage of Iraq. This image offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when coffee was not just a drink but an integral part of social gatherings. It reminds us of the importance placed on hospitality in Arab culture, where offering guests coffee is considered an act of kindness and respect. Published by Hasso Bros from Baghdad's Camera Studio Iraq and Rotophot AG Berlin, this print carries historical significance as it documents life during the early 20th century in Iraq. It serves as a testament to the country's cultural diversity and its connection to other parts of the Middle East. A Kerim's artistic talent shines through this monochrome masterpiece, capturing both the physical features and intangible qualities that make up this sheikh's character. This photograph stands as a tribute to Iraqi traditions while also inviting viewers to appreciate their own heritage and customs.
