The work of Alexandre Leroux (1836-1912) - photographer, researcher of Algeria, ethnographer, member of the Algerian Academy of Fine Arts (now the Higher School of Fine Arts), publisher of the illustrated magazine L'Algérie Illustrée.

But since 1900, as a" reporter", he covered the trips of governors, the pacification of Kabylie and other events, in particular the anti-Semitic riots that took place in Algeria between January 20 and 25, 1898 after the Dreyfus case, the appointment of the former prefect Lepin as governor and the Cremier decree.
