EDITORS COMMENTS

Somerville, this illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated Times on January 15,1859. The image showcases a young Algerian woman dressed in traditional attire, exuding elegance and grace. Her intricate garments reflect the rich cultural heritage of North Africa and pay homage to the region's Arab civilization. With her head held high and an air of confidence about her, she embodies the spirit of modernity while still embracing her roots. Algeria itself serves as a stunning backdrop for this scene, with its bustling markets and colorful architecture hinting at its African essence. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the resilience and strength found within Algerians during this era.
