EDITORS COMMENTS
Abd al Qadir, the renowned Algerian freedom fighter, is captured in this historic print alongside war minister Alphonse Henri d Hautpoul during their visit to Versailles in November 1852. The image, taken by an unknown artist from the 19th century and now part of a private collection, showcases the meeting between these two influential figures. Abd al Qadir (1808-1883) played a significant role in Algeria's fight for independence against French colonization. Known for his strategic military tactics and charismatic leadership, he became a symbol of resistance and liberation for many Algerians. In this photograph, we witness him standing side by side with Minister Alphonse Henri d Hautpoul as they explore the grandeur of Versailles. The juxtaposition of Abd al Qadir's presence within such a prestigious European setting highlights both his diplomatic skills and his determination to secure Algeria's autonomy. This image serves as a reminder of the complex history between France and Algeria during this period. Through Stefano Bianchetti's expert restoration work on this engraving, we are able to appreciate the details that bring this historical moment to life. The black-and-white composition adds depth and contrast to capture the gravity of their encounter. This print offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in North African history while honoring Abd al Qadir's legacy as an iconic figure who fought tirelessly for freedom.
