EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, published in 1897, showcases the impressive engineering feat that is the Kiel Canal (Nord-Ostsee-Kanal) in Germany. Spanning a length of 95 kilometers (59 miles), this freshwater canal located in the state of Schleswig-Holstein was completed in 1895 and later widened to accommodate increased maritime traffic. The canal serves as a vital link between the North Sea at Brunsbüttel and the Baltic Sea at Kiel-Holtenau. The lithograph beautifully captures the grandeur of this man-made waterway during the industrial revolution. It depicts ships gracefully navigating through its waters, symbolizing international trade and connectivity. As one gazes upon this historic print, they can almost feel transported back to a time when steam-powered vessels dominated these busy channels. Notably, the Kiel Canal holds an esteemed title as it remains today as one of humanity's greatest achievements in civil engineering. Its significance lies not only in connecting two major bodies of water but also for being recognized as the busiest artificial waterway worldwide. This lithograph by ZU_09 offers us a glimpse into history—a testament to human ingenuity and determination to conquer nature's obstacles. It reminds us how our ancestors shaped their environment to facilitate progress and foster global connections through monumental infrastructure projects like the Kiel Canal.
