The image presents a captivating view of the bridge, which spans the meandering River Khasa, connecting the eastern and western banks of this historic city. Kirkuk, located in the northeastern part of Iraq, has a rich cultural heritage and a long history that dates back to ancient times. The city has been a melting pot of various civilizations, including the Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Arabs. The presence of the bridge is a testament to the city's enduring resilience and its ability to adapt to the changing times.

The bridge's elegant design not only served as a vital transportation link but also added to the aesthetic appeal of the city. The River Khasa, which flows through Kirkuk, has been an essential source of life for the people of the region for centuries. The river's waters have nourished the fertile lands, supporting agriculture and sustaining the local population. The image of the bridge over the river underscores the importance of water as a life-giving force in this arid region. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the world was a different place.
