Tripoli, Libya Postcard – Pozzo Arabo (Arab Well), Early 20th Century

Regular price £5.00 GBP

This historic postcard showcases an Arab well, or Pozzo Arabo, in Tripoli, Libya. The scene illustrates a traditional water-drawing system, featuring a donkey used to power the pulley that lifts water from the well, a technique common across North African and Middle Eastern regions. Wells like these were essential in arid areas, providing vital access to water for communities, agriculture, and livestock. 
The reverse side of the postcard remains unused, with typical address and correspondence fields. It is marked with the publication information, "Foto Edizione Atton, Suk El Turk 117 - Tripoli."
