EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The War in Egypt, Engines from Alexandria passing up the Suez Canal to Ismailia" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Charles William Wyllie in 1882, this print captures the essence of the Anglo-Egyptian War. In this scene, we witness a fleet of powerful engines making their way through the iconic Suez Canal. The canal's calm waters reflect the solemnity and gravity of war as these vessels navigate towards Ismailia. Each ship exudes strength and determination as they pass by with purposeful strides. Wyllie's attention to detail is remarkable; he skillfully portrays every element of this historic event. From the intricate engravings on each engine to the vastness of the canal itself, every aspect comes alive within this print. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time - witnessing not only a military operation but also an engineering marvel that connected two great cities: Alexandria and Ismailia. This artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience during times of conflict. "The War in Egypt" reminds us that even amidst chaos and destruction, there is beauty to be found - whether it be in art or history itself. It invites us to reflect on our past while appreciating how far we have come since those tumultuous days along the banks of the Suez Canal.
