EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "At the Suez Canal, 1898" takes us back in time to witness a scene of remarkable transportation in Egypt. Created by Christian Wilhelm Allers as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), this lithograph beautifully captures the essence of travel during the late 19th century. In this image, we find ourselves at the banks of the iconic Suez Canal, where a group of majestic camels stands proudly against the backdrop of passing ships. The canal served as a vital waterway connecting Europe and Asia, revolutionizing global trade and transport. Here, it becomes evident how animals played an essential role in facilitating these endeavors. Allers' attention to detail is impeccable; every stroke on paper brings life to each camel's intricate features while showcasing their strength and resilience. This artwork not only transports us geographically but also immerses us in Egyptian culture with its depiction of traditional attire worn by locals. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded that art has always been an invaluable medium for capturing significant moments throughout history. Through Allers' lens, we gain insight into a world long gone yet preserved forever within these pages. The print collector who possesses this extraordinary piece holds not just an artistic treasure but also a gateway to understanding our past through visual storytelling.
