EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting streets of Algiers in 1895. The Rue de la Kasbah, with its narrow lanes and intricate stairways, leads us up to the magnificent Casbah, a symbol of the city's rich history. The architectural beauty of this Algerian gem is beautifully captured by Poulton & Co, renowned photographers of their time. Every detail is brought to life in monochrome, showcasing the unique blend of North African and European influences that define Algiers' character. As we gaze at this snapshot from over a century ago, we can almost hear the bustling sounds of people going about their daily lives. The doors and doorways along the street hint at hidden stories waiting to be discovered within each building. This image not only transports us geographically but also through time. It offers a glimpse into an era when horse-drawn carriages traversed these roads and residents embraced both tradition and progress. Preserved by George Newnes Ltd. , this photograph stands as a testament to their commitment to documenting remarkable sights across continents. It reminds us that even in our fast-paced world, there is value in pausing for reflection on the past. Let this print serve as an invitation to explore Algeria's vibrant history and culture—a reminder that every street holds tales worth discovering if we take the time to look closely enough.
