EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the essence of Ferdinand Marie de Lesseps, known as "the great French", a visionary diplomat and entrepreneur who left an indelible mark on history. De Lesseps is best remembered as the driving force behind two of the most ambitious engineering projects of his time - the Suez Canal in Egypt and the Panama Canal in America.
The Suez Canal, connecting Port-Said on the Mediterranean Sea to Suez on the Red Sea, revolutionized global trade by providing a shortcut between Europe and Asia. Meanwhile, the Panama Canal bridged the gap between the Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean, transforming maritime travel forever.
In this digitally colored woodcut from a 19th-century illustration, de Lesseps' steely gaze conveys determination and vision. His legacy as a pioneer of modern infrastructure is immortalized in this timeless image.
As we reflect on de Lesseps' remarkable achievements, we are reminded of his unwavering dedication to progress and innovation. This portrait serves as a tribute to a man whose bold ideas reshaped our world for generations to come.
