EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history in Algeria, specifically the Cheliff Region of Chlef, during the year 1917. The image showcases an oil research expedition, with a caravan camp set up on the edge of a wadi. The scene is bustling with activity as horses and donkeys surround the campsite, adding to the sense of movement and life.
The presence of these animals highlights the reliance on traditional modes of transportation and labor during this time period. It also gives us a glimpse into the daily lives of those involved in this industrial development project.
The backdrop of the wadi adds to the rugged beauty of the landscape, while tents dotting the area provide shelter for workers and researchers alike. This photograph serves as a visual record of colonialism in action, showcasing European influence in North Africa.
Overall, this image is not only aesthetically pleasing but also historically significant. It offers viewers a window into early 20th-century Algeria and provides valuable insight into both cultural practices and industrial advancements taking place at that time.
