EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, offering a mesmerizing glimpse into the General View of the Port of Alexandria in Egypt. Captured by an English photographer, this historical image is now part of a private collection. The photograph showcases the bustling port city of Alexandria, situated on the northern coast of Africa. The view encompasses a wide expanse, capturing both land and sea. The intricate details highlight the architectural beauty of this ancient Egyptian city while also providing insight into its rich history. The monochromatic tones add depth and evoke a sense of nostalgia, transporting viewers to an era long gone. This snapshot was originally featured as an illustration for "Souvenir of Egypt" by George Ch Dovas in 1898, further emphasizing its significance as a visual representation of that period. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded not only of the grandeur and importance that Alexandria held during that time but also how it continues to be an influential cultural hub today. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience throughout centuries. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary piece through their Fine Art Finder platform, allowing us to appreciate and reflect upon our shared history with every glance at this timeless photograph.
