EDITORS COMMENTS
ALGIERS: BASILICA, c1899. A picturesque view of the Notre Dame d'Afrique Basilica and Carmelite convent in Algiers, Algeria. This stunning print captures the essence of late 19th-century colonial French architecture against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea. The grandeur and elegance of this Catholic basilica are evident in its intricate design and towering spires, showcasing a blend of Gothic and Byzantine influences. The Notre Dame d'Afrique Basilica holds immense historical significance as a symbol of religious devotion and cultural heritage in Algeria. Its construction was completed in 1872 to honor Our Lady of Africa, patroness for sailors crossing the Mediterranean Sea. Nestled among lush green trees, this scenic view transports us back to a bygone era when turn-of-the-century charm reigned supreme. The photochrome technique used here adds depth and vibrancy to every detail captured on film. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at how it encapsulates both architectural splendor and natural beauty harmoniously intertwined. It serves as a testament to human creativity while also reminding us of the rich history that shaped Algiers into what it is today.
