EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of Port-Said, Egypt captures the essence of a bygone era. The image showcases The Breakwater, a prominent feature in this bustling Egyptian city at the northern end of the Suez Canal. The French Photographer expertly captured the architectural beauty and historical significance of this coastal town.
Port Said was founded in 1859 and has since been a vital hub for trade and commerce on the Mediterranean Sea. This particular photograph is part of a bound booklet of postcards from around 1910, providing a glimpse into daily life during that time period.
The stark contrast between light and shadow in this black and white image adds depth and drama to the scene. The intricate details of the breakwater structure are highlighted against the backdrop of the sea, creating a sense of nostalgia for viewers.
As you gaze upon this stunning photograph, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to early 20th century Egypt. The timeless beauty captured by the photographer serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that defines Port Said.
