EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant costumes and intricate hairstyles of Algeria, as depicted in Albert Charles August Racinet's renowned work "Le costume historique" from 1876. The illustration, skillfully drawn by A. Rinet, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this North African country. The image features a young girl adorned in a traditional Algerian costume, complete with an elaborate hat and a beautifully styled hairstyle. Her attire reflects the customs and traditions deeply rooted in Algerian society. The inclusion of a turban suggests the influence of Arab civilization on their fashion choices. The chromolithography technique used to create this artwork adds depth and richness to every detail captured by Leonard de Selva's expert photography skills. It is evident that great care has been taken to preserve the authenticity and beauty of these costumes and hairstyles. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness the elegance and gracefulness that characterized Algerian culture during this period. It serves as a reminder of the importance placed on tradition within communities across Africa. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance in documenting Algeria's unique identity through clothing and hair styling practices.
