EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the first rush of water flowing through the Gamboa dyke of the Panama Canal, around 1910-1914. The image, from the vast collection of the Library of Congress, showcases the engineering marvel of the 20th century as water gushes forth, flooding the previously dry land and connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The crowd of onlookers, huddled together against the bad weather, bears witness to this momentous occasion, their expressions filled with awe and excitement. The natural setting is juxtaposed with the man-made structure, as the dyke stands tall against the flooded landscape. This image is a testament to the ingenuity of the United States and its ability to overcome geographical challenges, transforming the Panama Canal into a vital transportation hub for the world. The position of the onlookers, with their backs turned towards the camera, adds to the sense of anticipation and wonder, making this photograph a significant piece of American and global heritage.
