EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in the early 1910s, a man makes his way down a shady street in Biskra, Algeria, surrounded by the towering date palms of the oasis. The sun casts dappled light through the fronds of the palms, creating a sense of tranquility and serenity. Two children, engrossed in conversation near the roadside stream, add a touch of innocence and playfulness to the scene. Biskra, located in the heart of the Sahara desert in northern Algeria, is renowned for its lush date palms and life-giving oases. For centuries, the region has been a vital source of sustenance for the local population, providing not only food but also shelter and shade in the harsh desert climate. The date palms, with their distinctive silhouette against the clear blue sky, have long been a symbol of resilience and survival in this arid land. The oasis of Biskra, with its lush vegetation and abundant water, stands in stark contrast to the barren desert that surrounds it. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of life in the oasis of Biskra during the early 20th century. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life was simpler, and the natural world held a greater significance in the daily lives of people. The children's carefree conversation near the roadside stream adds a sense of timelessness to the scene, reminding us that despite the passage of time and the many changes that have taken place, there are some things that remain constant, such as the beauty and resilience of nature and the simple joys of childhood. Overall, this photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the oasis of Biskra and the magic of the Algerian desert. It invites us to reflect on the beauty and fragility of life, and the importance of cherishing the moments that bring us joy and happiness.
