EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken circa 1910, we find ourselves transported back in time to the Garden of the Office of the Suez Canal Company in Ismailia, Egypt. Ismailia, a city situated in the north-eastern part of Egypt, was a significant hub during the construction and operation of the Suez Canal. The Suez Canal Company, established by the visionary French diplomat and entrepreneur Ferdinand de Lesseps, was responsible for the monumental task of building and managing the Suez Canal from its inception in 1859 until the 1950s. This image offers a glimpse into the elegant and tranquil surroundings of the company's headquarters. The photograph reveals a beautiful veranda, adorned with ornate columns and intricate detailing, which extends from the office building. Verandas, a common architectural feature in the region, provided a perfect setting for relaxation and contemplation. The terrace, shaded by lush trees, offers a serene and picturesque backdrop, creating an idyllic atmosphere. The garden, filled with tall, verdant trees, adds to the sense of peace and harmony. The presence of a bust of Ferdinand de Lesseps, the founder of the Suez Canal Company, serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable man and his groundbreaking achievement. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when the Suez Canal represented the pinnacle of human engineering and ingenuity. It stands as a symbol of the rich history and cultural significance of Egypt and its enduring connection to the maritime world.
