EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Boulevard de Ramleh, in Alexandria in Egypt" transports us back to the late 19th century. Taken by Zangaki around 1880-1890, this image offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the vibrant city of Alexandria during that era. The Boulevard de Ramleh stretches out before our eyes, bustling with life and activity. The architecture of the buildings lining the street showcases an intriguing blend of European influences fused with local Egyptian aesthetics. Each structure stands tall and proud, reflecting the grandeur of a city at its peak. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, we are drawn to the urban scene unfolding before us. People from all walks of life can be seen going about their daily routines - men dressed in traditional robes conversing animatedly on street corners while women elegantly stroll along the boulevard adorned in flowing garments. The atmosphere is alive with energy as horse-drawn carriages make their way through crowded streets. Pedestrians navigate through a sea of bustling activity; merchants display their wares on sidewalks while children playfully chase each other amidst laughter and joy. Beyond capturing these lively interactions between people, Zangaki also provides us with a breathtaking view of Alexandria itself. The cityscape extends far into the distance, revealing towering minarets piercing through clouds as if reaching for the heavens above. In this remarkable photograph print from Alinari's collection, time seems to stand still as we immerse ourselves in an enchanting moment frozen forever within its frame. It serves as both a testament to Egypt's rich architectural heritage and a window into everyday life during one of Alexandria's most transformative periods.
