EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, circa 1910, showcases a breathtaking aerial view of Hotel d'Alger located on Rue Dumont-d'Urville and Rue Henri Martin in Algiers, Algeria. The image transports us back in time to the vibrant and cosmopolitan cityscape of North Africa during the 1910s. The Hotel d'Alger, a grand architectural marvel, stands proudly in the heart of the city, its whitewashed facade gleaming under the African sun. Surrounded by lush, verdant trees, the hotel appears as an oasis amidst the bustling streets below. The nearby Rue Henri Martin, with its winding roads and rows of buildings, adds to the urban charm of the scene. Algiers, the largest city in Algeria, was a popular destination for European travelers during the early 20th century. The city's unique blend of African, European, and Middle Eastern influences is evident in this photograph, with the traditional Algerian houses nestled among the more modern European-style buildings. The trees lining the streets, a testament to the city's subtropical climate, provide a striking contrast to the stark, white buildings. The intricate details of the architecture, from the ornate balconies to the decorative wrought-iron railings, are a feast for the eyes. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the rich history and cultural diversity of Algiers during a bygone era. The Hotel d'Alger, with its timeless elegance and charm, remains a symbol of the city's enduring allure.
