EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in the historic city of Skikda, formerly known as Philippeville, in Algeria, North Africa, we find a local shoemaker deeply engrossed in his craft. The image captures a moment of quiet concentration as he meticulously repairs a pair of worn-out shoes on the pavement, the sun casting long shadows on the dusty street. The cobblestone street, lined with old, weathered buildings, speaks to the rich history of this African city, which was founded in the late 19th century by the French. The intricate doorway of the building behind the shoemaker is a testament to the architectural beauty that can still be found in this part of the world. The shoemaker, dressed in traditional Algerian attire, is a symbol of the resilience and resourcefulness of the local population. His simple yet essential work is a reminder of the importance of repairing and preserving, rather than discarding and consuming new items. The tools of his trade are spread out around him, ready for the next customer. The pavement, worn down by the passage of time and the heavy foot traffic, bears witness to the daily life of the city and the people who call it home. The vibrant colors of the shoes, the shoemaker's clothing, and the surrounding buildings add a splash of life to the otherwise muted tones of the scene. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human spirit and the importance of preserving history, both personal and communal. It invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the beauty that can be found in the most unexpected places.
