EDITORS COMMENTS
in Tunis, Tunisia, 1899: A Celebration of Faith and Community in the Heart of Lent This evocative photograph captures the spirit of "La Mi-Careme," an old French festival celebrated in the heart of Tunis, Tunisia, during the third week of Lent in 1899. The image transports us back in time to an era when faith and community came together to mark the passage of the Lenten season. The festivities are centered around the Rue du Bardo, a bustling street adorned with colorful decorations and throngs of people. Men and women, dressed in their finest attire, gather to enjoy the merriment, their faces reflecting a sense of joy and camaraderie. Children, dressed as jesters and other fantastical characters, frolic in the streets, their laughter adding to the cacophony of sounds that fill the air. At the center of the scene, a procession makes its way through the crowd, led by a brass band playing lively tunes. The participants carry elaborate floats, each one representing a different aspect of the Christian faith. The intricately designed floats are adorned with flowers, fruits, and other offerings, symbolizing the abundance of the harvest and the promise of renewal. The festival of "La Mi-Careme" was an important tradition in Tunisian society during the late 19th century, reflecting the rich cultural tapestry of the region. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, reminding us of the power of community and the enduring significance of faith in our lives. The image serves as a testament to the resilience and vibrancy of traditions that have stood the test of time, and continues to inspire awe and wonder in all who behold it.
