EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ALGERIA: STREET SCENE, c1899" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Algiers. The image showcases a vibrant street known as the Street of the Red Sea, captured through the lens of a photochrome postcard dating back to 1899. The scene is filled with life and activity, depicting an exterior view of this late 19th-century Algerian street. People can be seen walking along the narrow alleyway, going about their daily lives amidst stunning Muslim architecture that adorns both sides. The rich history and cultural significance are palpable in every detail. Notably, women wearing traditional burkas and niqabs grace the street with their presence, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to this snapshot from another era. Their elegant attire reflects both tradition and modesty while blending seamlessly into the colorful tapestry of everyday life in Algiers. The photographer has skillfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also a glimpse into Algerian culture at its core. This print serves as a testament to how photography can transcend time and space, allowing us to connect with different periods and places. Presented by The Granger Collection based in New York City, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Algeria's past while appreciating its architectural beauty and diverse community dynamics.
