EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1875, capturing a significant moment in history. In Ismailia, Egypt, we witness the presence of The Prince of Wales, who would later become King Edward VII. Accompanied by his entourage, this image showcases their journey towards India via the iconic Suez Canal. The wood engraving beautifully depicts this colonial era scene, highlighting the grandeur and power associated with the British Empire at its height. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, it becomes evident that this visit holds great importance for both diplomatic and strategic reasons. The people of Ismailia warmly greet The Prince of Wales and his entourage as they pass through North Africa on their way to India. Dressed in regal uniforms befitting his future role as king, The Prince exudes an air of authority and nobility. This photograph not only captures a historical moment but also serves as a reminder of Britain's imperial ambitions during that time period. It symbolizes the influence and reach of the British Empire across different continents. Granger Art on Demand has skillfully preserved this piece from history for us to admire today.
