EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, showcases a breathtaking view of the city of Ismailia in north-eastern Egypt. Named after the third Khedive of Egypt, Isma'il Pasha, this thriving urban center was a significant hub during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image reveals a picturesque scene of the city, with its diverse mix of architecture that ranges from grand houses and villas to more modest dwellings. Men can be seen going about their daily business, adding a sense of life and activity to the scene. The presence of trees and greenery, including tall palm trees and leafy foliage, adds a touch of natural beauty to the urban landscape. In the background, the majestic Suez Canal can be seen, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea and serving as a vital trade route between Europe and Asia. The canal's presence further underscores the importance of Ismailia as a commercial and strategic center. Despite its urban character, the photograph also reveals the presence of nearby villages and rural areas, with their simple houses and agricultural lands, adding to the rich tapestry of life in this region of Egypt during the 1900s. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and character of Ismailia, a city that continues to be an essential part of Egypt's cultural and economic landscape.
