EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the rich history of Algeria from its earliest days to the present, as illustrated in a book by J.J. E. Leroy in the Mame editions from the mid-19th century. The edition, dating back to 1864, was once offered as a prize book in French primary schools, highlighting the importance of understanding and preserving Algeria's past.
The image depicts the momentous event when Algeria fell under French rule on June 14, 1830 at Sidi-Ferruch (now known as Sidi-Fredj), a historic site located just outside Algiers. The engraving by Karl Girardet beautifully portrays this pivotal moment of conquest and colonization that shaped Algeria into a colony.
As we gaze upon this piece of history frozen in time, we are reminded of the complex layers that make up Algeria's identity - from its ancient roots to its more recent colonial past. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far this nation has come and how much it has endured throughout the centuries.
Through this photo print, we are invited to delve deeper into Algeria's fascinating narrative and reflect on the impact of its tumultuous history on shaping its present reality. It is a testament to resilience, strength, and cultural heritage that continues to define Algeria today.
