The woman, wearing a dotted dress with a cinched waist and a wide-brimmed hat, beams at her companion. Her blonde curls peek out from under the hat, and she clutches a wicker basket, perhaps filled with treats for a picnic. The man, dressed in a crisp white shirt with rolled-up sleeves and high-waisted trousers, looks at her with an easy smile. His hair is neatly combed back, and a pair of round sunglasses rest on his nose. Behind them, children play with hula hoops and a vendor pushes an ice cream cart, capturing the idyllic and carefree spirit of the era. The trees in the background are lush and full, their leaves casting playful shadows on the ground.</p></div><p class="intern-img-caption">Photographs by Blanche Eid Courtesy to Arab Image Foundation.</p></div><div class="content-section"><p class="AIF-intern-p">The Arab Image Foundation (AIF) offers internships for students and recent graduates during the summer and throughout the academic year.
