The Grand Square - A Haunting Reminder of Alexandria's Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the aftermath of a devastating fire that swept through The Grand Square in Alexandria, Egypt during the early 1910s. In this poignant image, we witness the remnants of what was once a bustling open space filled with life and grandeur. The destruction caused by the fire is evident as buildings stand charred and crumbling, their former glory reduced to ashes. Amongst the ruins, a solitary fountain still stands defiantly, its water feature now silenced by tragedy. Nature begins to reclaim its territory as plants and trees emerge from the cracks in broken pavements. The photograph evokes a sense of loss and melancholy while also serving as a testament to human resilience. It reminds us that even amidst devastation, beauty can still be found within our surroundings. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era long gone – an ancient city forever changed by flames. The image invites us to reflect on history's impact on our present-day lives and serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time. Captured by an unknown creator, this powerful print allows us to bear witness to both destruction and rebirth; it encapsulates not only Alexandria's past but also humanity's ability to rebuild after catastrophe strikes.
