The Ravine of Constantine, Algeria: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken around 1899, offers a picturesque view of The Ravine in Constantine, Algeria – a natural wonder that continues to enchant visitors with its breathtaking beauty and rich history. The image, presented in vibrant, coloured tones, transports us back in time to the late 19th century, when European explorers and settlers were captivated by the allure of the North African landscape. The Ravine, or Wad El-Had, is a stunning geological formation characterized by its steep cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and lush vegetation. In this photograph, the ravine appears as a serene and idyllic retreat, with the turquoise waters of the Rhumel River winding their way through the verdant valley. The ancient city of Constantine, nestled atop the cliffs, adds an air of historical significance to the scene. The photograph, which is part of the rich collection of historical prints available at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the enduring allure of Algeria and its vibrant past. The use of the photochrom process, a popular method for producing coloured photographs during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds to the nostalgic charm of the image. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural diversity that have shaped the landscape of Algeria, and the enduring allure of the natural world. Whether you are an historian, a travel enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this photograph is a must-see addition to your collection.
