Qasr-e-Qusantinah, Northern Algeria


My ai artwork, a reproduction of F.A. Bridgman's painting, Qasr-e-Qusantinah in Northern Algeria 80 km from the Mediterranean coast.  Combination of simplicity and cultural beauty.


Qasr-e-Qusantinah was built in 1825 displaying Ottoman architecture and was the residence of the Bey (governor) of Qusantinah.  Area estimated 600 square meters, consists of at least four apartment units within the building, additionally multicolor marble lining beneath the balustrade, garden and courtyard.  Doors and windows skillfully carved with cedar wood, arched entrances, latticed front window and stone steps.  The scene maintains the mildly warm afternoon, golden afternoon lighting and rich atmospheric quality of 19th century Ottoman style capturing the essence of northern Algerian architecture and daily life of the era  🍊🍋
