EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of the Panama Canal. Taken by a French photographer in the 19th century, it showcases the construction works of the Canal Interoceanique De Panama in the Chagres Valley. The image is part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration for "Panama, Le Passe, Le Present, L Avenir" by P Bunau-Varilla. In this scene, we see construction materials and equipment being transported between Bohio and Gamboa along specially designed barges. The sheer scale of the operation is evident as workers maneuver through rugged terrain to build this monumental engineering feat that would connect two great oceans. The photo offers us a glimpse into both French history and global significance. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to overcome geographical obstacles. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of France's involvement in shaping world infrastructure during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of French culture for all to appreciate. Through their Fine Art Finder platform, they continue to bring historical moments like these back to life while honoring the artistry behind them.
