EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a gutter from the High Imperial Period (27 BC-395 AD) in Djemila, Algeria. The image captures the essence of Roman colonial town life in North Africa during this era. The intricate details of this ancient sewerage system are beautifully preserved, revealing the advanced engineering skills and urban planning of the Roman Empire. This particular gutter, known as "Bouche d'egout" served as an essential component for drainage and waste management within the city. Djemila itself holds great historical significance as it was founded by Emperor Nerva to honor old campaigners of the legion between 96-98 AD. Today, it stands as an archaeological site that offers a glimpse into the grandeur and sophistication of Roman civilization. Renowned photographer Gerard Degeorge has expertly captured this moment frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical importance. With his keen eye for detail, Degeorge brings forth every nuance and texture found within this ancient artifact. As we admire this extraordinary photograph print, let us reflect on how our ancestors ingeniously constructed infrastructure systems that continue to impact modern society today. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, their legacy lives on through these tangible remnants of their ingenuity and craftsmanship.
