EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scenic beauty and vibrant energy of Philippeville, now known as Skikda, in Algeria during the 1930s. The image showcases a bustling street lined with European-style buildings, their facades adorned with intricate architectural details and balconies filled with people watching the world go by. The cobblestone road is filled with the sounds of clattering horse-drawn carts and the rumble of passing cars, symbolizing the intersection of traditional and modern modes of transportation. In the background, the clear blue waters of the bay shimmer in the sunlight, dotted with fishing boats and ships anchored at the coast. The minaret of a mosque can be seen in the distance, a testament to the rich cultural diversity of this North African town. The photograph, taken circa 1932, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this bustling Mediterranean town during the 1930s.
