EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Moonlight: Walls of Tangiers" transports viewers to the enchanting streets of Tangiers in the early 20th century. Painted by renowned African American artist Henry Ossawa Tanner, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of a moonlit night in North Africa. The painting depicts a cityscape bathed in ethereal moonlight, casting an otherworldly glow upon the Moorish and Arabic architecture that lines the streets. The dark houses stand tall against the night sky, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. As we gaze at this scene, we are transported to an exotic world filled with rich cultural heritage. Tanner's meticulous attention to detail brings life to every brushstroke, showcasing his exceptional realist style. His ability to capture light and shadow adds depth and realism to each element within the composition. This painting not only showcases Tanner's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to his unique perspective as an African American artist during that time period. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of the beauty found in diversity and cross-cultural experiences. It is through art like this that we can explore different corners of our world without leaving our own space. Let us embrace these glimpses into distant lands and appreciate their contribution to our collective human experience.
