EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the late 19th century, capturing a picturesque scene of windmills on the Mediterranean Sea in Alexandria, Egypt. The image showcases the timeless beauty of this coastal city, with its iconic structures standing proudly against the backdrop of sparkling blue waters. In the foreground, we see a group of Egyptians posing with a small cart, adding an element of human interest to this serene landscape. Their traditional clothing reflects their cultural heritage and adds depth to the composition. This snapshot offers a glimpse into rural life during that era - simple yet vibrant. The windmills themselves are magnificent structures that have stood tall for generations, symbolizing both functionality and architectural prowess. These terrestrial giants were vital for farming and country life at the time, harnessing nature's power to grind grains and support local communities. A donkey stands nearby, serving as a reminder of how transportation was predominantly by land during those times. It highlights not only practicality but also emphasizes the connection between humans and animals in daily life. As our gaze extends beyond this charming group portrait, we are drawn towards the expansive sea stretching out before us. The vastness evokes feelings of tranquility while reminding us of Alexandria's deep-rooted relationship with maritime trade routes such as the Silk Road. This remarkable photograph by Zangaki captures not just an ordinary moment frozen in time but also encapsulates themes like architecture, fashion, transportation methods prevalent during that period. It serves as a visual gateway into history - inviting us to explore Egypt's rich past through its landscapes and people.
