EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to the year 1925 in Jordan. The image showcases a group of Turkish soldiers standing amidst the ancient ruins of Petra, an extinct city that holds immense historical significance. Petra, known as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World today, was once a thriving metropolis and capital of the Nabataean Kingdom. Its remarkable architecture carved into rose-colored sandstone cliffs has fascinated explorers and historians for centuries. The presence of Turkish soldiers in this photograph adds an intriguing layer to its narrative. In 1925, Jordan was under British mandate after being part of the Ottoman Empire for centuries. It is possible that these soldiers were stationed there during this transitional period or perhaps visiting Petra out of sheer curiosity. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it evokes a sense of wonderment and awe at both the grandeur and fragility of human history. The juxtaposition between modern military figures and ancient architectural marvels serves as a reminder that civilizations rise and fall but leave behind indelible imprints on our world. This Liszt Collection print not only captures a momentous era but also invites us to reflect upon our own place within history's vast tapestry.
