EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Suez Canal at El Qantara, taken around 1900. The image comes to life with vibrant colors thanks to the unique technique of photochrom, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. The Suez Canal, an engineering marvel connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea through the Isthmus of Suez, was constructed by the French Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez between 1859 and 1869. Officially opened in November 1869, this monumental waterway revolutionized global trade and navigation. In this scene, we witness a bustling maritime landscape as ships and boats navigate their way through this vital artery of international commerce. The tranquil waters of Lake Manzala reflect the clear blue sky above while mirroring the surrounding lush greenery. The strategic location of El Qantara on Egypt's north-eastern edge makes it an essential crossing point along this historic canal route. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how human ingenuity conquered nature's obstacles. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images captures not only a significant moment in history but also highlights Africa's rich heritage and Egypt's pivotal role as a gateway between continents. It serves as a reminder of mankind's ability to shape its environment for progress and connectivity while preserving natural beauty for generations to come.
