EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ismailia - The flood-gate downwards" transports us back to the early 20th century in Egypt. Taken between 1918 and 1939, this image showcases a bustling scene at the Suez Canal's flood-gate in Ismailia. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown, but their talent for capturing the essence of daily life is evident. The vibrant colors and hand tinting add an enchanting touch to the photograph, bringing it to life. In the foreground, we see a group of men standing near a sailboat known as a felucca. Their presence adds depth and context to the image, giving us insight into transportation methods during that era. The canal itself stretches out before us like a shimmering waterway connecting continents. It served as a vital trade route between Europe and Asia, facilitating global commerce and travel. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of Egypt's rich cultural heritage and its pivotal role in international trade. This postcard captures not only an everyday scene but also represents an era marked by progress and exploration. Preserved through time, this vintage print allows us to appreciate both the beauty of Ismailia's landscape and the ingenuity behind constructing such engineering marvels as floodgates along one of mankind's greatest waterways –the Suez Canal.
