EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling city of Port Said in the early 20th century. The image showcases the entrance to the Suez Canal, a vital shipping route that connected Europe and Asia. Standing proudly at the forefront is the grand headquarters of the Suez Canal Company, an architectural marvel that symbolizes Egypt's booming industry and trade during this era. The hand-coloured photograph offers a vivid glimpse into daily life in Port Said. Moored boats dotting the Mediterranean Sea create a picturesque scene against a backdrop of vibrant rooftops. From an elevated view, one can appreciate both the urban sprawl and natural beauty that define this historic port city. Port Said's strategic location made it a popular tourist attraction for travelers from around the world. Visitors flocked to witness firsthand this engineering marvel created by Ferdinand de Lesseps, who spearheaded its construction. The canal not only facilitated global trade but also brought prosperity to Egypt as ships passed through its waters. As we admire this vintage postcard, let us transport ourselves back in time to experience Port Said's charm and significance as an international hub for commerce and transportation. This photograph serves as a reminder of our shared history and how human ingenuity has shaped our world throughout centuries past.
