EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking view of Oran, Algeria's second-largest city, as it appeared around the turn of the 20th century. Taken from the Marina, the image transports us back in time to an era of colonial history when European powers, including France, held significant influence over the North African coast. Oran, founded in 903 AD, has a rich and complex history, with various civilizations leaving their mark on the city over the centuries. However, it was during the French colonial period, which began in 1831, that Oran underwent significant transformation. The Marina, a popular gathering place for European residents, was developed as a hub of leisure and commerce. In this photograph, we see the Marina's bustling activity, with ships anchored in the harbor, sailors going about their business, and European villas lining the waterfront. The city's fortifications, including the imposing El Djazair Fort, can be seen in the distance, a reminder of the strategic importance of Oran as a military stronghold. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the daily life of Oran during this period. Women in traditional Algerian dress can be seen going about their errands, while European women stroll along the waterfront, enjoying the sunshine and the view. The scene is one of contrasts, with the modern European influence juxtaposed against the traditional Algerian way of life. This photograph is a testament to the unique history of Oran and the role it played in the colonial era. It invites us to reflect on the complex and often tumultuous relationship between Europe and its North African colonies, and the lasting impact of colonialism on the region's cultural and architectural landscape.
