EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, Max Scheler takes us back to a defining moment in history - the Suez Crisis. The image captures a convoy trapped on the iconic Suez Canal near Cantara on December 24th, 1956. Published originally in Picture Post, it offers a poignant reminder of the troops left behind during this tumultuous period. The landscape format emphasizes the vastness of both water and conflict that engulfed the Middle East and Africa at that time. With no people visible, we are left to contemplate the sheer scale of this crisis as it unfolded. Scheler's composition skillfully highlights a nautical vessel stuck amidst turbulent waters, symbolizing not only physical entrapment but also financial and political turmoil. This archival photograph serves as an enduring testament to human resilience in times of war. As we gaze upon this historic scene, our minds wander to those directly affected by these events - soldiers fighting for their beliefs and civilians caught up in geopolitical struggles. It is through images like these that we gain insight into past conflicts while reflecting on their impact today. This thought-provoking print transports us back to an era defined by tension and unrest. It reminds us how crucial transportation routes can become battlegrounds during times of war or conflict. Through Scheler's lens, we bear witness to a pivotal moment in history when nations clashed over control of one vital canal – forever
