EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling scene of steamer coaling in Port Said, Egypt during the 20th century. Port Said, known as a vital fuelling station for ships passing through the iconic Suez Canal, is showcased here as a hub of activity and industry. The image showcases a vivid display of color against the backdrop of the sea. A fleet of boats can be seen carrying coal to refuel steamships, highlighting the significant role that water transport played in trade and transportation during this era. The towering funnels on these vessels stand tall, symbolizing the power and might of these maritime giants. In this snapshot, men are diligently loading coal onto these ships, showcasing their strength and resilience in an arduous task. Their presence adds a human element to this otherwise mechanical scene, reminding us that behind every feat of engineering lies hardworking individuals who make it all possible. Port Said's urban landscape provides an intriguing contrast to its natural surroundings. This location served not only as a gateway between continents but also as a testament to human ingenuity and progress in civil engineering.

It invites viewers to appreciate the intersection between geography, industry, and people that shaped Port Said into what it was during this vibrant period in history.
