EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from the early 1900s, showcasing the exotic and mysterious world of Morocco. The image titled "Moving a harem: women of El Menebhi from Marrakech going to Tangier" by Rudolf Hedrich offers a rare glimpse into the private lives of Muslim women during that era.
The scene depicts a group of veiled women elegantly dressed in traditional attire, being transported on horse-drawn carriages as they make their way from Marrakech to Tangier. The intricate details of their clothing and accessories reflect the rich cultural heritage of Morocco, while also highlighting the strict social norms and customs surrounding female seclusion at that time.
The photographer's skillful composition and use of light bring out the beauty and grace of these women, despite their anonymity behind veils. Their expressions are enigmatic yet alluring, inviting viewers to ponder about their thoughts and emotions as they embark on this journey.
This print serves as a valuable historical document, shedding light on the complex dynamics within harems and seraglios in North Africa. It is a reminder of the diverse experiences and perspectives of women in different societies, offering an opportunity for reflection on issues related to gender, religion, and culture.
