EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as engineers work diligently to shift the iconic obelisk, known as the "Needle Ready to Travel," to a position parallel with the beach in Alexandria, Egypt. The year is 1877, and this monumental task symbolizes not only a physical movement of an ancient structure but also a metaphorical journey through time.
The obelisk stands tall against the backdrop of historical buildings, reminiscent of Cleopatra's reign and Egypt's rich past. As the engineers carefully maneuver the massive stone structure, one can't help but feel awe-inspired by their dedication and precision.
The image evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about how such feats were accomplished without modern technology. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ingenuity and determination to preserve our cultural heritage for future generations.
As we gaze upon this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the incredible efforts made to ensure that this ancient obelisk remains standing proudly on the shores of Alexandria. It is a testament to human achievement and serves as a reminder that history is not just something written in books but something tangible that connects us to our past.
