Photograph of As Sulaymaniyah, Iraq, taken November 1921

Description

[Kurds in the bazaar. ?I spent....the first day in seeing the nice little town and walking about in the funny picturesque bazaars. They're a jolly people, the Kurds. Their huge twisted turbans, baggy trousers held up by yards and yards of knotted cotton belt and short felt jackets are a joy to look at.
