EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in Kokand, Uzbekistan. Taken in 1905, the image presents a local tea shop where a musician plays a traditional two-stringed lute known as a dutar. The musician's intense focus on his instrument, combined with the warm, inviting atmosphere of the tea shop, transports us back in time. The shop's interior is adorned with intricate patterns and textiles, while the aroma of freshly brewed tea wafts through the air. Teapots and hookah pipes rest on low tables, inviting patrons to relax and enjoy the company of one another. The musician, dressed in traditional Uzbek attire, skillfully plucks the strings of his dutar, producing a hauntingly beautiful melody that resonates through the room. The dutar, also known as a dutor, dotar, or doutar, is a traditional long-necked lute found in Iran and Central Asia. Its name comes from the Persian word for 'two strings.' The instrument's unique sound and distinctive shape have made it a beloved part of Central Asian culture for centuries. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of Kokand and Uzbekistan, providing a window into a time when life moved at a slower pace, and community and music were cherished aspects of daily life.
