Bur Said Cart Carter Port Said Tinted Track
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Port-Said, Egypt, around the year 1900. The image depicts Rue de la Gare, a vibrant urban road that served as a vital transportation hub during this era. The street is teeming with activity, showcasing the daily lives and occupations of its inhabitants. In this snapshot of history, we catch a glimpse of an African country on the continent's northern edge. The color-tinted photograph adds depth and richness to the scene, highlighting every detail from the dusty lane to the colorful carts lining both sides of the street. The presence of carters suggests that road transport played a significant role in moving goods and people through Port-Said at that time. This profession was essential for sustaining trade and commerce within this thriving port city. As we admire this postcard-like print captured by "the print collector" we are transported into an era where horse-drawn carts were commonplace and streets were filled with energy and purpose. It serves as a reminder of how much our world has evolved over the past century while also honoring those who contributed to its growth. This print is not just an image; it is a window into history – one that allows us to appreciate both the beauty and significance of everyday life in early 20th-century Port-Said.
