EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print, titled "Entrance to the Suez Canal, Port Said, Egypt" takes us back in time to the late 19th or early 20th century. The image showcases a bustling scene at the entrance of the iconic Suez Canal in Port Said, Egypt. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this historical moment to life. In the foreground, we see a busy harbor filled with an array of ships and boats - from large steamships to smaller tugboats - all engaged in their respective activities. The quayside is abuzz with activity as workers go about their tasks amidst crates and cargo. The Suez Canal itself stretches out into the distance, cutting through the landscape like a lifeline connecting two vast bodies of water - the Mediterranean Sea on one end and another unknown horizon on the other. This print not only captures a snapshot of maritime history but also serves as an educational tool. It was part of Liebig's collection of educational cards that aimed to enlighten viewers about various subjects. Here it highlights civil engineering marvels such as canals that revolutionized transportation and trade routes during this era. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how human ingenuity has shaped our world by conquering nature's obstacles for progress and connectivity.
