EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the construction of the Canal Interoceanique De Panama. Taken by a French photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases the immense scale and complexity of the project. The focus is on "Travaux De La Culebra" which refers to the excavation work at Culebra Cut. The photograph offers a glimpse into an era when France was heavily involved in building this engineering marvel. It serves as an illustration for "Panama, Le Passe, Le Present, L Avenir" by P Bunau-Varilla, published in 1892. The scene depicts workers laboring diligently amidst rugged terrain and dense vegetation. Their efforts were crucial in carving out a path through mountains and valleys to connect two oceans – Atlantic and Pacific. This print from a private collection evokes feelings of awe towards human ingenuity and determination. It symbolizes not only French involvement but also represents international collaboration that shaped world trade routes. As we admire this historical masterpiece captured by Mzphoto, let us appreciate how it paved the way for global connectivity while acknowledging its impact on local communities and ecosystems. This photograph stands as a testament to both triumphs and challenges faced during one of mankind's greatest infrastructure achievements – the Panama Canal.
