EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases the iconic statue of Ferdinand Marie, Vicomte de Lesseps in the Egyptian port city of Port Said. De Lesseps (1805-1894) was an esteemed French diplomat and engineer, renowned for his groundbreaking achievement in developing the Suez Canal. The canal, which opened in 1869, connected the Mediterranean and Red Seas for the first time, significantly reducing sailing distances and travel times between the West and the East. In this image, we see a group of people gathered around the imposing statue, their hands reaching out towards the arm of the figure, as if in a gesture of reverence or admiration. The statue, with its intricate details and grandeur, stands proudly against the backdrop of the North African coastline and the vast expanse of the Mediterranean Sea. The Arab population of the region, dressed in traditional clothing, adds to the rich cultural tapestry of the scene. The statue of de Lesseps in Port Said is a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable French visionary, whose engineering feat revolutionized global trade and travel. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past and the fascinating story of human ingenuity and perseverance.
