Algeria Biskra


EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the bustling marketplace in Biskra, Algeria, dating back to the late 19th century. The vibrant scene transports us to a bygone era, filled with the rich history and culture of this North African city. The Market of Biskra, located in the heart of the city, has been a hub of activity for centuries. This photograph, estimated to have been taken around 1899, showcases the market in all its glory. The narrow streets are lined with colorful stalls selling an array of goods, from textiles and spices to ceramics and metalwork. The marketgoers, dressed in traditional attire, haggle over prices, their faces expressing a range of emotions from serious to jovial. The photograph, in beautiful coloured picture postcard format, is a testament to the charm and allure of this historic market. The use of the picturechrom process, a popular method of color photography during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds a nostalgic and picturesque quality to the image. Biskra, located in the southeastern part of Algeria, is known for its hot springs and unique architecture. The city has a long and fascinating history, with influences from various civilizations, including the Romans, Berbers, and Ottomans. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the market's role as a melting pot of cultures and traditions. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time, immersed in the sights, sounds, and smells of the Market of Biskra. The image is a reminder of the power of photography to capture history and preserve memories for generations to come.
