EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Cairo in 1900 with this photo print. The scene captures a Cook cruise along the Nile, with Giza road running parallel to an electric tram line. In the background, the iconic pyramids loom large, serving as a reminder of Egypt's ancient history.
Hippomobile transport dominates the foreground, showcasing how people and goods were transported through the city at the turn of the century. Donkeys pull carts laden with bags and crates, while locals go about their daily routines amidst a backdrop of palm trees and dusty roads.
The image offers a glimpse into everyday life in Cairo during this period - from laborers hauling goods to tourists exploring the sights. The blend of traditional transportation methods and modern technology highlights Egypt's transition into a more industrialized society.
As you study each detail captured by Lux-in-Fine's lens, you can almost hear the sounds of bustling streets and feel the energy that permeated Cairo at that time. This print is not just a snapshot in history but a window into a world that has long since passed, yet continues to fascinate and inspire us today.
