EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of North Africa in the late 19th century. The engraving, titled "Letters K and L: Kabyles; Blade" is part of a French alphabet series created by Joseph Charles Beuzon in 1887. In this particular piece, we see the letters K and L depicted alongside two distinct elements. The letter K represents "Kabyles" and is illustrated with an image of Karatto, an agave plant commonly found in Algeria. This choice reflects the rich natural elements present in North Africa's landscape. On the other hand, the letter L symbolizes "Blade" and showcases a beautiful Lily flower known as Liseron. The backdrop of this engraving resembles a tapestry, adding to its artistic appeal. A child dressed in traditional clothing stands next to an arm holding a jug filled with water - perhaps representing a water carrier from Algerian culture. Animals can also be seen within this vibrant scene, including what appears to be a sword-wielding figure riding on horseback across a torrential river. Overall, this print provides us with glimpses into both French and Arab cultures during that time period while showcasing various aspects of life in North Africa. It serves as a fascinating historical document that transports us back to another era.
