EDITORS COMMENTS
"This engraving captures a bustling riverside scene at Luxor, Egypt, in December 1884. The Nile River is dotted with Lanteen-rigged Dhows, traditional sailing boats that have been a vital means of transportation and commerce on the Nile for centuries. The dhows are skillfully maneuvered using both sails and oars, with their distinctive rigging allowing them to sail upstream against the current. In the background, several boats are being constructed on the shore, a testament to the continuous use and importance of these vessels in Egyptian life. The Iln, or Nile boats, were an integral part of the region's history, facilitating the movement of people, goods, and resources between the various settlements and cities along the Nile. The intricate details in this engraving offer a glimpse into the daily life along the Nile during the late 19th century. The dhows, with their elegant sails and the boats under construction, create a picturesque tableau that speaks to the rich maritime heritage of Egypt."
