EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the vibrant Egyptian port city of Port Said in 1909, offers a glimpse into the past as it showcases the unique blend of African and European influences that defined this bustling North African hub. The image features a bustling street scene, with mule-pulled trams and a watchmaker's shop as its focal points. The mule-drawn tram, a common mode of transport in Egypt at the time, adds a sense of nostalgia and authenticity to the scene. The mules, with their determined expressions and sweat-streaked faces, seem to embody the hardworking spirit of the city. The tram, with its intricate design and ornate details, stands out against the backdrop of the sandy streets and simple, yet colorful, buildings. The watchmaker's shop, located on the left side of the street, adds a touch of European sophistication to the scene. The shop's sign, with its elegant script and ornate clock face, suggests a sense of precision and reliability. The watchmaker, with his intense focus and deft hands, appears to be engrossed in his work, while the curious onlookers outside peer in, no doubt intrigued by the inner workings of the intricate timepieces. Port Said, located at the northernmost tip of the Suez Canal, was a melting pot of cultures and influences. This photograph captures the essence of this diversity, with its African porters, European-style buildings, and Middle Eastern architecture. The mule-pulled tram and watchmaker's shop serve as reminders of the city's rich history and its role as a vital trading hub between Europe and Africa.
