EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting postcard, dated 1902, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Cairo and the awe-inspiring Saladin Citadel. The image on the left showcases a group of intrepid travelers, dressed in the fashion of the early 1900s, as they ride atop their majestic camels. Their joyous expressions and the playful interaction between the riders and their animals convey the sense of adventure and excitement that comes with exploring new lands. On the right, the iconic Saladin Citadel of Cairo stands tall and proud, a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Egypt. This magnificent fortification, built by the renowned Sultan Saladin in the late 12th century, has served as a stronghold, fortress, and citadel throughout the centuries. The intricate details of its architecture, including the Moorish arches and the minarets adorned with intricate carvings, are beautifully captured in this postcard. The postcard's border is adorned with delicate drawn roses, adding a touch of elegance and romance to this scene. The roses, a symbol of love and beauty, serve as a reminder of the timeless allure of travel and discovery.
