EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history at the Suez Canal Conference held in London, England in 1883. Seated at the far end of the table, on the left side, is Ferdinand de Lesseps, President of the Suez Canal Company. The image showcases an atmosphere of diplomacy and negotiation as de Lesseps engages with the council members of the London Chamber of Commerce. The wood engraving provides a glimpse into this late Victorian era conference room adorned with wealthy executives and influential diplomats. De Lesseps himself exudes authority and confidence with his crossed arms and distinguished appearance - sporting a beard, moustache, top hat, and sideburns that were fashionable during that time. This gathering represents more than just an agreement between nations; it symbolizes colonialism and power dynamics between empires. With Egypt's strategic location as its backdrop, this conference played a crucial role in shaping international relations during that period. As we reflect on this historic moment frozen in time by Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded of how commerce transcends borders and influences global politics. This print serves as a reminder of our shared past while also sparking curiosity about the intricate negotiations that took place behind closed doors to shape one of humanity's greatest engineering marvels - the Suez Canal.
