EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the smelting works in Keppel Harbour, Singapore during the 20th century. The image showcases a significant part of Singapore's history as a British colony known as British Malaya. Taken by an English photographer, this photograph is now part of a private collection. The smelting works depicted in the picture were vital to the economic development of Singapore at that time. Keppel Harbour served as a bustling hub for trade and industrial activities, with its strategic location attracting numerous ships from around the world. The photo was originally used as an illustration for Sir Frank Swettenham's book "British Malaya" published in 1907. This publication aimed to provide insights into various aspects of life in colonial Singapore and its surrounding regions. Looking closely at this image, one can imagine the intense activity taking place within these smelting works. It serves as a reminder of how far Singapore has come since those early days, transforming itself into a prosperous nation-state known for its modern skyline and vibrant economy. As we reflect on this historic moment frozen in time, it is essential to appreciate the contributions made by generations past that have shaped present-day Singapore into what it is today – a thriving Asian metropolis with rich cultural diversity and remarkable achievements.
