EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Bona (Annaba) in Algeria, circa 1895. The image is a remarkable engraving from "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" authored by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited in London. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a bustling North African cityscape nestled amidst breathtaking natural beauty. A majestic tree stands tall at the forefront, its branches reaching towards the heavens as if embracing the secrets whispered by centuries past. Behind it lies an array of buildings that form the heart of Bona, each one telling stories of resilience and history. As our gaze wanders further into the distance, we witness a landscape that seamlessly blends urbanity with nature's grandeur. The city harmoniously coexists with its surroundings—a testament to human ingenuity adapting to its environment. This monochrome masterpiece captures not just a moment but an entire era—the 19th century—when Algeria was under French colonial rule. It offers us a glimpse into life during this transformative period for both country and continent. With every detail meticulously etched onto paper, this print evokes nostalgia for times long gone while reminding us of Africa's enduring allure. Its charm lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its ability to transport us through space and time—to experience Annaba as it once was.
