EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the 1870s, 1880s, or 1890s in the vibrant city of Algiers, Algeria. The image showcases a group of men from the Isawiyya brotherhood, a renowned Islamic mystical order founded by the revered Sheikh al-Kamil Mohamed al-Hadi ben Issa in Meknes, Morocco. The Isawiyya, also known as the Aissaoua, is a spiritual brotherhood that has deeply influenced the religious and cultural landscape of North Africa for centuries. The brotherhood is renowned for its distinctive practices, including ecstatic rituals and healing ceremonies, which have drawn the attention of scholars, travelers, and pilgrims from around the world. In this photograph, the men, dressed in traditional garb, are gathered in front of a grand, ancient landmark. The architectural details of the stone structure, with its intricate carvings and arches, suggest that it may be a temple or a monument of some kind, perhaps a place of worship or pilgrimage for the Isawiyya brotherhood. The image also reveals the rich history and diverse cultural heritage of Algeria, a country that has been shaped by the influences of various civilizations, from the Phoenicians and Romans to the Arabs and Europeans. The photograph is a testament to the enduring power of art and history to transport us to another time and place, allowing us to explore the world's diverse cultures and traditions. Whether you are a history buff, a travel enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this vintage image of the Men of the Isawiyya in Algiers is sure to captivate your imagination and inspire your sense of wonder.
