Abd El Kader, a name that resonates with the history of Algeria. In the midst of the French conquest of Algeria in June 1836, a bivouac was set up by the French army under General Bugeaud to quell the revolt led by Abd El Kader. This pivotal moment marked a turning point in the struggle for Algerian independence. A portrait painted in Constantinople in 1866 captures Abd El Kader's essence. The artist, Stanislas Cbebowski, skillfully portrays his strength and determination. Another portrait showcases Ben Mahi Ed Din Abd El Kader, known as Amir of Mascara, who played a crucial role in leading his people against foreign occupation. In 1852, yet another portrait immortalizes Emir Abd-el-Kader. His piercing gaze reflects his unwavering commitment to defending his homeland from European colonization. European scenes depicted through colored engravings provide glimpses into this tumultuous era. An engraving simply titled "Abd El Kader" encapsulates his significance as an influential figure during this time period. It serves as a reminder of his resilience and leadership amidst adversity. The capture of the tribe led by Abd El Kader is depicted vividly through artistic expression. Henri d' captures this event with great detail and emotion, showcasing both sides of conflict - triumph for one and defeat for another. Even masonic insignia bear witness to Abd el-Kader's impact on society at large - enamel, metal, and silk intertwine to symbolize unity among brethren striving towards common goals. The loyalty displayed by Algerian tribal chiefs towards France is portrayed colorfully through lithographs; it sheds light on complex dynamics within Algerian society during this turbulent period. Lastly, an engraving depicting Abd El Kader alongside Napoleon III signifies their encounter - two powerful figures meeting at a crossroads between colonial domination and resistance.
