EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of an Interior of a house in Damascus from the late 1800s, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This vintage photograph transports us to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a Syrian household during the Victorian or Edwardian period. The room is filled with intricate details that speak to the rich cultural heritage of Damascus. The ornate, arched doorway leads us into a space adorned with colorful textiles, intricately patterned tiles, and hand-painted murals on the walls. The large, ornate lantern suspended from the ceiling casts a warm, golden glow over the space, adding to the cozy and inviting atmosphere. The furniture in the room is a mix of Middle Eastern and European styles, reflecting the diverse influences that shaped Damascus during this period. A low, cushioned bench runs along one wall, while a wooden table and chairs sit in the center of the room. A traditional Syrian coffee set rests on the table, hinting at the aromatic and flavorful beverages that would have been enjoyed by the family and guests. The use of natural materials, such as the woven baskets and wooden furniture, adds to the earthy and organic feel of the space. The large, arched windows allow for ample natural light to filter in, creating a bright and airy environment. This photograph is a rare and precious reminder of the beauty and charm of Damascus during the late 1800s. It invites us to imagine the stories and memories that were created within these walls and offers a glimpse into a time when life moved at a slower pace. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection continues to preserve and share these precious moments from history, allowing us to connect with the past in a meaningful way.
