Port Said c. 1900 - 1910

"Port Said," a black and white photograph by Henricus Jacobus Tollens, depicts a dredge boat docked in the harbor at Port Said, Egypt. The photograph was taken sometime between 1900 and 1910, and provides a glimpse into the industrial activity of the port at the turn of the 20th century. The photo is notable for its sharp detail and composition, capturing the dredging equipment and the calm waters of the harbor. Tollens, a Dutch photographer, was known for his documentation of shipping and industrial scenes.
