This print takes us back to the mid-19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling caravanserai in El Kantara, Biskra Province, Algeria. Published in 1866 by L'univers Illustre, this illustration showcases the vibrant atmosphere of North Africa during that era. In this image, we are transported to a time when caravans would make their arduous journeys across the vast African landscape. The caravanserai served as a vital resting and stopping place for these weary travelers. Here, they would find respite from their long expeditions and replenish their supplies before continuing on their way. The scene is filled with activity - merchants haggling over goods, camels laden with precious cargo patiently waiting for their next voyage, and locals going about their daily lives amidst this transient hub of commerce. The architectural beauty of the caravanserai is evident in its intricate design and grandeur. Its walls bear witness to countless stories of trade and cultural exchange between different civilizations that passed through these doors. Ken Welsh's expertly captured moment allows us to immerse ourselves in the rich history and diverse culture of North Africa during this period. It serves as a reminder of how places like El Kantara played an essential role in connecting distant lands through trade routes while also serving as meeting points for people from various backgrounds. This print truly encapsulates the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined travel during the 19th century in North
