Notlar	Captions are written on the mounts in Arabic or Judeo Arabic., The carving on the box cover is a tugra forming the names of two brothers, Kheireddine and Arrouj, infamous 16th-century corsairs., On the album cover a tugra written in a combination of colloquial and classical Arabic reads: Algiers/Tunis. Do not look at the beauty of appearances, look at your deeds. Appearance is not as important as the inner self., The inscription on the brass inner cover reads in the center: I start with the name of God; and in the border: In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful (first sura of the Qurʼan)., Title page reads: Author: Abdu Rabbih al-Wahhāb - Fernand tunisi baldati min Kusa [?] (called Gabriel the Christian, in the year 1881)., The photographs are unsigned and the photographer(s) have not been identified., The album covers are made of carved wood and tooled and painted leather set into brass backings and closed with brass hinges; decorations are in a North African artisanal style comprising calligraphic and geometric elements. The album is housed in a carved wooden box.
Örnek Metin	The album contains 107 albumen photographs of the Maghreb region of North Africa. The first half ofthe album features views of Algeria and Tunisia taken in and around Tlemcen, Algiers, Biskra, Blida, Béjaïa, El Kantara, Carthage, Lambessa, and Ouargle. There are images of mosques, tombs, and palaces,as well as local neighborhoods and streets. Natural sites, such as gorges, oases, and desert areas are also depicted, as are views of Roman ruins. The second half is devoted to portraits of North African peoples. These are primarily studio portraits of women from various ethnic groups, although some male occupational portraits, as well as portraits of dignitaries such as the Agha and Califa of Ouargla are included. Many of the sitters are identified by name. A few scenes of daily life showing coffee houses,shops, markets, and street life are interspersed among the portraits., The album was seemilngly compiled from a North African perspective, as only a few images containingportions of French buildings allude to a western presence. This fact, along with the album's elaborate boxand covers, suggests that it may have been compiled for a high ranking official or wealthy North African.
