EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a momentous occasion in Sidi Bel Abbes, Algeria, on 14 July 1906. The focal point is the impressive facade of the Arc de Triomphe, a symbol of French colonialism in North Africa. In celebration of Bastille Day, a mock Arc de Triomphe has been erected along with vibrant bunting strung across the street. Sidi Bel Abbes served as the headquarters for the renowned 1st Regiment of the French Foreign Legion at that time. The image showcases men dressed in military uniforms, proudly displaying their patriotism by marching through the street adorned with flags and banners. Their presence adds to the atmosphere of commemoration and celebration. This photograph not only highlights an anniversary but also reflects larger themes such as war, colonialism, and national identity. It serves as a reminder of France's influence over its colonies during this period. The artist Boumendil skillfully captured this historical moment using monochrome tones that enhance both the architectural beauty of the monument and the solemnity surrounding it. This print is a testament to his talent as well as an important documentation of Algerian history. With its rich symbolism and historical significance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into life in Sidi Bel Abbes during early 20th century colonial rule.
