EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable story of a true world champion woman cigarette smoker. The image showcases an Ouled Nail woman from Biskra, whose smoking habits are nothing short of extraordinary. Known to consume between a staggering hundred to a hundred and twenty cigarettes every single day, this woman's dedication to her habit is unparalleled. Taken on 14th October 1924, during the interwar period in Europe, this monochrome photograph offers us a glimpse into an era defined by its unique cultural practices. The intensity with which she smokes reflects both her personal choice and the societal norms prevalent at that time. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of female empowerment. In an age when women were fighting for their rights and challenging traditional gender roles, this Ouled Nail woman boldly defied expectations by embracing her passion for smoking without hesitation or apology. Preserved by Central News and now part of the Europeana photography collection, this photograph serves as a testament to human diversity and individuality across different eras. It reminds us that even seemingly mundane aspects of life can hold profound meaning when viewed through the lens of history
