EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment at the School of Carpet Making in Algeria, where the traditional art of carpet weaving is passed down from generation to generation. In the foreground, a young pupil intently focuses on her task, her eyes fixed on the intricate pattern she is weaving on the loom. She wears the traditional attire of an Algerian carpet maker, complete with a scarf draped over her head and a comb in her hair. The carpet making process is a labor-intensive craft that requires immense skill and patience. The weaver carefully selects and arranges the wool or silk threads on the loom, using a comb to separate and align them. The threads are then woven together, row by row, to create the intricate patterns and designs that are synonymous with Algerian carpets. The history of carpet making in North Africa dates back thousands of years, with Algeria being renowned for its unique and beautiful carpets. The craft has been an integral part of Algerian culture and tradition, and the School of Carpet Making serves as a vital institution for preserving and promoting this rich heritage. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of carpet making, providing a window into a time-honored craft that continues to thrive in Algeria. The intricate patterns and vibrant colors of the carpet, as well as the traditional outfit of the pupil, serve as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of this ancient craft.
