EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity of The Harbour at Port Sudan, the eastern Sudanese city serving as the capital of the Red Sea state during the 1910s. The image transports us back in time, revealing a vibrant and diverse port scene teeming with life. Situated on the Red Sea coast, Port Sudan was a vital hub for trade and transportation in the early 20th century. The harbor's natural deep-water basin made it an essential stop for international shipping lines, as well as a gateway for the export of Sudan's abundant natural resources, such as cotton, gum arabic, and gold. In this photograph, we see a myriad of boats and ships anchored in the harbor, their sails billowing in the wind. Local fishermen can be seen mending their nets and preparing their catch for sale, while Sudanese merchants engage in lively negotiations with visiting traders. The hustle and bustle of the port is mirrored by the activity on the shore, where camel caravans and horse-drawn carts transport goods to and from the ships. The Harbour at Port Sudan was not only a center of commerce but also a melting pot of cultures. The diverse population of the city is reflected in the people visible in this photograph – Europeans, Sudanese, and other nationalities are all represented, exchanging goods, ideas, and stories. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and multicultural heritage of Port Sudan during a pivotal period in its development. It serves as a reminder of the city's enduring significance as a vital link between Africa and the wider world.
