The Crisis in Egypt, the Fortifications of Alexandria Harbour, the Allied Squadron in Harbour at Alexandria
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by William Lionel Wyllie that depicts a significant moment in history. The image showcases the fortified harbor of Alexandria during a time of turmoil and conflict. Intricately detailed, the print reveals an array of ships and vessels anchored within the harbor. Among them are British ironclad Invincible, French ironclad La Galissoniere, Greek frigate Hellas, and Egyptian frigate Mehemet Ali. These imposing warships stand as symbols of power amidst the chaos. The fortifications surrounding the harbor demonstrate strategic military planning with their constructed earthworks and battery armed with 20 guns. The scene also includes merchant sailing vessels and Egyptian transports Masr, adding depth to this maritime tableau. This engraving captures not only a naval spectacle but also hints at political tensions present during this period. It alludes to conflicts such as Mahdist War while showcasing various nations' involvement in Egypt's crisis. The coastal setting adds another layer to this historical narrative; it features a lighthouse guiding ships along the shoreline while highlighting key landmarks like Ras El Tin Palace and Khedive's yacht Mahaoussa. Overall, Wyllie's masterful depiction offers viewers an immersive glimpse into a pivotal moment in Egypt's history - one where fortresses rise against uncertain times while powerful navies converge for control over these turbulent waters.
