Place des Consuls, Alexandria, Egypt, c. 1880s: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene at Place des Consuls in Alexandria, Egypt, during the late 19th century. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant culture of this historic city by the Mediterranean Sea. The photograph, taken between the 1880s and the early 1900s, depicts the central square as a lively hub of activity. Horse-drawn carriages and hackneys line the streets, their drivers eagerly awaiting passengers. The grand architecture of the consular buildings, with their ornate facades and tall columns, dominate the scene, standing as testament to the city's cosmopolitan past. The Place des Consuls was a significant landmark in Alexandria, serving as the headquarters for various European consulates during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The area was a melting pot of diverse cultures, with residents and travelers from around the world coming together to conduct business, exchange ideas, and explore the wonders of this ancient city. However, this period was not without its challenges. The photograph was likely taken before the devastating bombardment of Alexandria in 1882, which saw the city come under attack from British forces. The bombardment marked a turning point in Egypt's history, leading to the end of the Khedivate and the beginning of British rule. Despite this, the city continued to thrive, attracting travelers from around the world who were drawn to its unique blend of traditional and modern influences. Today, Place des Consuls remains an important part of Alexandria's urban landscape, a testament to the city's rich history and enduring cultural significance.
