The Bombardment of Alexandria - A Glimpse into the Turmoil of History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Bombardment of Alexandria" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured by William Henry James Boot and engraved with meticulous detail, it showcases the chaos that unfolded during the Anglo-Egyptian War in 1882. As we delve into this image, our eyes are drawn to the grand entrance of Ras's palace amidst a picturesque garden. However, serenity quickly gives way to scenes of destruction as streets become battlegrounds. French forces join their Anglo-Egyptian counterparts in bombarding Alexandria, leaving no corner untouched. Amidst this turmoil, architectural marvels like Zizinia Theatre and Hotel Abbat stand tall but not unscathed. The Bourse and Tin Place bear witness to looting while Rue de la Colonne Pompee echoes with Bedouins' presence. In stark contrast to these scenes of devastation lies Khedive's Palace—a symbol of power—standing resolute against the backdrop. L'Eglise de Alexandria reminds us that even amidst war, faith endures. Through this engraving, we catch a glimpse into an era defined by political tensions and territorial disputes. It serves as a reminder that history is often shaped by conflict and its consequences reverberate through time. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to immerse ourselves in the past—to witness both beauty and destruction—and contemplate how these events have
