EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the bustling activity at Sultan Hussein Quay in Port Said, Egypt. The focus of the image is The Department Store, a prominent retail establishment operated by Simon Arzt. The store's large, ornate sign proudly announces its name, drawing the eye of passersby. Adjacent to The Department Store, the Thos. Cook & Son office can also be seen. Thos. Cook & Son was a renowned British travel agency, and their presence in Port Said speaks to the area's growing popularity as a tourist destination in the early 20th century. The quay side is filled with a mix of vehicles and pedestrians, adding to the sense of energy and excitement. Motor cars, some with distinctive European designs, are parked along the waterfront, while men in traditional Egyptian garb and European business attire mingle on the dock. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its depiction of the intersection of Egyptian and European cultures in Port Said during a time of increasing tourism and globalization. The presence of both The Department Store and Thos. Cook & Son highlights the economic connections between Egypt and Europe, while the diverse crowd on the quay underscores the cultural exchange that was taking place. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the vibrant and dynamic world of Port Said during the 1930s.
