EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from 1801, we witness the sprawling Ottoman army encampment at El Arish, Egypt. The coastal town, situated in the eastern part of the Nile Delta, served as a strategic location for the Ottoman forces during their campaign against the French invasion led by Napoleon Bonaparte. The photograph captures the vast expanse of the camp, with rows upon rows of tents pitched on the sandy coastline. Horses and camels, essential mounts for the Ottoman army, graze peacefully nearby. Boats and ships are anchored in the calm waters of the sea, reflecting the clear blue sky above. The Ottoman soldiers, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, can be seen engaging in various activities. Some tend to their horses, while others prepare meals or mend their weapons. The presence of the boats and ships suggests that the army was well-equipped for naval battles, further emphasizing their readiness to defend their territory. El Arish, with its idyllic coastal setting, offers a striking contrast to the military preparations underway. The tranquil waters and the seemingly endless expanse of sand dunes create a surreal backdrop to the bustling encampment. The Ottoman army's presence at El Arish was crucial during this period, as it marked the last stand against the French invasion before the Battle of Alexandria. The successful defense of El Arish allowed the Ottoman forces to regroup and prepare for the decisive battle, ultimately resulting in a significant victory against the French. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the Ottoman army's encampment during a pivotal moment in history, providing a captivating insight into the military strategies and daily life of the Ottoman soldiers during the early 19th century.
