EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Cairo, Egypt in 1849. The image showcases a ferry landing on the majestic Nile River, located in the Old Cairo section of the city. The line engraving, created by an English artist, beautifully captures the essence of life along this historic river. In the foreground, we see a rider on a camel, symbolizing traditional transportation methods used during that era. A group of men and women can be seen waiting at the river side with baskets in hand, ready to board the ferry. The scene is framed by towering palm trees and a sail boat known as felucca gliding gracefully across the water. This picturesque setting truly reflects North African charm. As our eyes wander through this intricate artwork from The Granger Collection's Carousel collection, we are transported to another time and place where daily life unfolds against a backdrop of timeless beauty. The attention to detail allows us to imagine ourselves standing there amidst all these elements - witnessing history unfold before our very eyes. This print serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over centuries while showcasing Cairo's rich cultural heritage and its deep connection with one of nature's most iconic rivers - The Nile.
