EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in the early 1910s, a man sits comfortably in a wicker chair, enjoying the tranquility of the courtyard of a grand villa in Beni Mered, Algeria. The villa, located in the farming area of Abziza, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication with its whitewashed walls, arched doorways, and lush greenery. The man's relaxed posture and the peaceful surroundings suggest a leisurely lifestyle, far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Beni Mered, a small town in northern Algeria, was a popular destination for European settlers during the colonial era. The region was known for its fertile land, which was used for agriculture, particularly for the cultivation of olives and grapes. The villa in the photograph is a testament to the wealth and prosperity that some settlers enjoyed during this period. The image also offers a glimpse into the architectural styles that were popular during the colonial era in Algeria. The villa's design is reminiscent of traditional Andalusian architecture, with its use of arches, courtyards, and whitewashed walls. However, the presence of modern elements, such as the wicker chair and the European-style clothing worn by the man, serve as reminders of the blending of cultures that occurred during this period. Overall, this photograph captures a moment of quiet reflection and relaxation in a beautiful and historic setting. It offers a window into the past, providing a glimpse into the lives of European settlers in Algeria during the colonial era. The image is part of The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, a vast archive of historical photographs that document life in Europe and beyond during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
