EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Ataba Square, a bustling tram station in Cairo, Egypt, during the month of March in 1919. The image showcases the vibrant street scene of this historical location with great detail and depth. In the foreground stands the magnificent Tiring department store, its grandeur emphasized by a globe perched atop its roof. This iconic building serves as a testament to the architectural marvels of that era. Its presence adds an air of elegance and sophistication to the otherwise busy surroundings. The streets are teeming with life as people go about their daily routines under the warm sunlight. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along the sidewalks while others eagerly await their turn at boarding one of the trams lined up at the station. The trams themselves exude a sense of nostalgia, reminding us of simpler times when public transportation was an integral part of city life. This photograph not only captures a specific moment in history but also encapsulates Cairo's unique charm and energy. It allows us to witness firsthand how this vibrant city has evolved over time while still retaining its cultural heritage. Preserved by Topical Press Agency and now available as a stunning print, this piece offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to own a tangible piece of history that will undoubtedly spark conversations and transport viewers back to early 20th-century Egypt.
