EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the bustling Colombo Harbour in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), captured by the talented Keystone View Company. The image transports us to a time when steamships dominated water transport, symbolizing the country's thriving shipping industry. The Indian Ocean stretches out before us, its vastness reflecting the magnitude of trade and commerce that took place within this harbor. Rowing boats and outrigger canoes gracefully glide through the water, adding a touch of traditional charm amidst modern industrialization. Colombo Harbour stands as a testament to Ceylon's geographical significance as an island nation strategically located along major trade routes. This bustling port served as a gateway for goods flowing in and out of the country, connecting it with distant lands across the globe. The monochrome palette enhances our focus on the intricate details of this scene - from towering ships docked at port to workers diligently loading and unloading cargo. Each element contributes to painting a vivid picture of an industrious country driven by maritime trade. As we gaze upon this stereoscopic card, we are transported back in time, experiencing firsthand how Colombo Harbour played an integral role in shaping Sri Lanka's history and economy. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and cultural ties with seafaring traditions that have shaped nations throughout centuries past.
