EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Touggourt Oasis Pot Market in North Africa during the early 20th century. Taken by a European photographer, this image showcases the picturesque beauty of this bustling market. The scene is filled with an array of intricately designed pots, displayed proudly by local vendors. The attention to detail in each pot is remarkable, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistry of African culture. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, highlighting both the vibrant colors of the pots and the intricate patterns adorning them. The Touggourt Oasis serves as a backdrop for this lively market scene, adding to its allure. The oasis provides a serene setting amidst all the hustle and bustle, with palm trees swaying gently in the background. This particular print was featured in Picturesque North Africa, a publication that aimed to showcase the beauty and charm of this region. It was first published in Berlin by Ernst Wasmuth before being gravure-printed by Lehnert and Landrock in Cairo. Now part of a private collection but out of copyright restrictions, this print allows us to travel back in time and experience a glimpse into life at Touggourt Oasis Pot Market during an era long gone. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today.
