1. Title: "A Scenic Stroll Down Boulevard Jules Ferry, Tunis, Tunisia - A Glimpse into the Past" Boulevard Jules Ferry, located in the heart of Tunis, Tunisia's vibrant capital city, is a tree-lined avenue that has stood as a symbol of Tunisian urban beauty for over a century. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases the elegant charm of this iconic boulevard, as it was once known to the world. The image reveals a serene scene of the boulevard, with its meticulously trimmed trees casting dappled shadows on the wide, paved road. The lush greenery, a stark contrast to the arid North African landscape, creates an inviting atmosphere, making it a popular destination for leisurely strolls and social gatherings. The boulevard, named after Jules Ferry, a French statesman who played a significant role in the colonization of Tunisia, is a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange between France and Tunisia. The European architectural influence is evident in the grand buildings that line the boulevard, their facades adorned with intricate details and ornate balconies. As you delve deeper into the photograph, you may notice the presence of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, adding to the bustling energy of the scene. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a more leisurely pace, and the simple pleasures of a scenic stroll along a tree-lined boulevard were cherished. This photograph, part of The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a reminder of the enduring allure of Boulevard Jules Ferry and the unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty that makes Tunis, Tunisia, an unforgettable destination.
