EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century French drawing showcases the grandeur and significance of the Suez Canal, as seen from Port Said on the Red Sea. The overall view captured in this print takes us on a visual journey through the canal, starting from its entrance at Port Said and extending all the way to the Mediterranean Sea. The artist skillfully depicts the vastness of this engineering marvel by including both Great and Small Bitter Lakes along its route. These lakes serve as important resting points for ships navigating through this vital maritime passage. The panoramic perspective allows us to appreciate not only the sheer size of these lakes but also their strategic location within North Africa's transportation network. The presence of a ship sailing through these waters adds dynamism to the scene, emphasizing how crucial this canal is for international trade and global connectivity. It serves as a lifeline between continents, facilitating efficient transportation between Europe and Asia. Through this historic artwork, we are reminded of humanity's ability to conquer nature's obstacles by creating such monumental structures like the Suez Canal. This print captures an era when maritime exploration was at its peak, showcasing both man-made ingenuity and natural beauty in perfect harmony.
