EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of The Khedives Palace at Ras-El-Tin, Alexandria during the late 19th century. The exact artists behind this masterpiece remain unknown, but it is believed to be a collaboration between B Strassberger and an anonymous artist. The image showcases the stunning architecture of the palace, with its intricate facade standing tall against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea. Boats can be seen docked nearby, symbolizing both transportation and trade in this bustling port city. Intriguingly, this photograph also serves as a historical artifact from a significant period known as the Anglo-Egyptian War (1882). It was featured in James Grant's book "British Battles on Land and Sea" highlighting Britain's imperialistic endeavors during that time. Amidst all these elements lies a glimpse into Egyptian culture and society. Men dressed in traditional attire are scattered throughout the scene, adding depth to our understanding of life in Egypt during this era. As we admire this print today, we are transported back to a bygone era where literature met artistry. This piece not only celebrates architectural brilliance but also represents an important chapter in British history intertwined with Egyptian heritage.
