EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting view of the picturesque Tunisian town of Sousse as it appeared in 1906, as seen from the harbor. The town, located on the eastern coast of Tunisia, is steeped in history and culture, with its rich past evident in the ancient ruins and architectural wonders that can be seen throughout. The photograph showcases the stunning Mediterranean coastline, with the crystal-clear waters gently lapping against the shores. The town itself is a mosaic of whitewashed buildings, winding streets, and red-tiled rooftops, creating a charming and idyllic scene. In the foreground, a small fishing boat can be seen bobbing in the harbor, adding a sense of tranquility and serenity to the image. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the daily life of Sousse during this era. People can be seen going about their business along the waterfront, while others relax in the shade of the buildings or take a leisurely stroll along the promenade. The bustling marketplace, with its colorful stalls and lively atmosphere, is also visible in the background. Sousse has a rich history that dates back to ancient times, with evidence of Phoenician, Roman, and Arab influences. The town is home to several historic sites, including the ancient port of Thysdrus, the Ribat of Sousse, and the Mosque of Sidi El Hani. Today, Sousse remains a popular tourist destination, offering visitors a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty.
