EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the unique architectural charm of the Quarantine Office in Sawakin, a historic port city located in north-eastern Sudan. Circa 1925, this image transports us back in time to the 1920s, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this African city. The Quarantine Office, an essential structure for maintaining public health during the era of international trade, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Red Sea. Its design showcases a harmonious blend of African and Middle Eastern influences, with intricate geometric patterns adorning the exterior walls and the distinctive Cumba and Jumba windows framing the entrance. The building's most prominent feature is the impressive arched doorway, which is flanked by two tall, slender columns. Above the doorway, the name "Quarantine Office" is inscribed in bold, Arabic script. The roof, topped with traditional Sudanese tiles, adds to the building's distinctive silhouette. Mohamed Ali Gawish, a renowned Sudanese photographer, captured this image, showcasing his exceptional skill in documenting the architectural beauty of his homeland. The photograph's warm, sepia tones add to its timeless appeal, making it a captivating addition to any collection of African or architectural history. The Quarantine Office in Sawakin is a testament to the city's rich history and the unique architectural styles that have shaped its identity. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to explore the stories and cultures that have shaped this remarkable African city.
