Marabout Oasis near Misrata, Gulf of Sidra, Libya (circa 1940s) - A captivating image from The John Barrett Collection, showcasing the enchanting Marabout Oasis located near Misrata in the Gulf of Sidra, Libya. This postcard, likely sent or received during the 1940s, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the beauty and tranquility of this North African oasis. The Marabout Oasis is characterized by its lush palm trees, providing a striking contrast to the arid desert landscape.

The Gulf of Sidra, a body of water known for its turquoise waters and diverse marine life, can be seen in the distance. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the past, offering a glimpse into a time when travel was more adventurous and the world was a little more connected, yet still full of mystery and wonder. The Marabout Oasis near Misrata, Gulf of Sidra, Libya, remains a testament to the resilience and beauty of nature, even in the most unexpected places.
