EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Samarkand: Sart Home, c1910" takes us back in time to the early 20th century in Uzbekistan. The image showcases a beautiful courtyard of a traditional Sart home, belonging to the Turkic-speaking Muslim community. Photographed by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii around 1910, this snapshot captures the essence of Samarkand's architectural charm during that era. The intricate details of the building's exterior are visible, with its elegant balcony standing out as a prominent feature. The composition transports us into the heart of this Sart home, offering a glimpse into their daily lives and cultural practices. One can imagine families gathering on warm evenings or engaging in lively conversations within these walls. Prokudin-Gorskii's lens skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also reflects the rich history and heritage embedded within these structures. This photograph serves as an important historical document that sheds light on turn-of-the-century life in Samarkand. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of how photography has allowed us to preserve moments from different periods for generations to come. It is through images like these that we can appreciate and understand our past while celebrating diverse cultures such as those found in Samarkand.
