EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Tunis: the road Dar el Bey with some shops and the Hospital Sadikij" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Tunis in the late 19th or early 20th century. The image captures a vibrant scene along the road, showcasing a mix of store fronts, architectural structures, and lively trade. The composition is rich with details that highlight both the commercial and cultural aspects of this urban setting. A prominent portico stands tall, adorned with intricate building elements and decorative sections. Towering above it all is an elegant arcade that adds a touch of grandeur to this street view. As we delve deeper into the photograph's narrative, our attention is drawn towards various shops lining either side of the road. These establishments serve as hubs for commerce and trade, attracting locals dressed in traditional attire who engage in their daily activities. Amidst this dynamic atmosphere stands out one particular structure - Hospital Sadikij. This medical facility symbolizes progress amidst tradition; its presence signifies an evolving society catering to its citizens' healthcare needs. The overall ambiance exudes a sense of masculine energy as men go about their business on this busy avenue. Their fashion choices reflect the clothing trends prevalent during that era. Through P. Z. 's lens from Alinari's collection at Photoglob & Co. , we are transported back in time to witness a snapshot of Tunisian history. This remarkable print offers us not only visual delight but also serves as a valuable historical document capturing life on these ancient streets over a century ago.
