This piece is  an Alfred Eisenstaedt Original Photograph titled "Egyptian Fishing Boats Suez Canal" taken near Port Said in 1935. A traditional black-and-white photography focusing on composition, reflection and light.

In 1935, Eisenstaedt immigrated to the United States to escape the rise of the Nazi regime. He quickly became one of the first photographers hired by the newly established Life magazine in 1936. Over his career, he contributed more than 2,500 photo stories and had over 90 cover photos published in the magazine, establishing himself as a leading figure in photojournalism.

Eisenstaedt is renowned for his ability to capture candid moments and significant historical events with a small 35mm Leica camera, often using natural light. His most famous photograph, taken on August 14, 1945, depicts a U.S. Navy sailor kissing a nurse in Times Square, celebrating the end of World War II. This image has become a symbol of joy and relief at the war's conclusion. 

Throughout his career, Eisenstaedt photographed a wide range of subjects, including celebrities, politicians, and everyday people, always aiming to "find and catch the storytelling moment".  His work has been celebrated for its warmth and humanity, and he is often referred to as the "Father of Photojournalism" for his contributions to the field
