EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity on the Bridge over the Maritza in Philippopolis (now Plovdiv), Bulgaria, during the tumultuous year of 1885. Amidst the backdrop of the ongoing Balkan Crisis, where vassal states sought independence from the Ottoman Empire, Eastern Roumelia, including Philippopolis, had recently declared its autonomy. The bridge serves as a vital connection between the two sides of the city, with equine and pedestrian traffic crossing its sturdy structure. In the distance, the rest of the city sprawls out, its rooftops and chimneys forming a mosaic of human activity. The aerial view offers a unique perspective, allowing us to appreciate the bridge's architectural significance and the strategic importance of this location. This photograph, taken in the 1880s, is a testament to the resilience and determination of the people of Philippopolis during a time of great upheaval and change. The Bridge over the Maritza stands as a symbol of unity and progress, connecting the past to the present and offering a glimpse into the rich history of Bulgaria.
