EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and energy of a horse race in the historic city of Mazagan, El Jadida, Morocco, circa 1905. The image showcases a thrilling moment during a street race, with two horses and their jockeys in a fierce competition, their hooves pounding against the dusty ground. The crowd of spectators, a sea of hats and colorful robes, leans in, fully engaged in the action, their faces reflecting a mix of anticipation, excitement, and sometimes, anxiety. The backdrop of Mazagan's stunning architecture adds to the scene's charm, with intricately designed buildings and arches framing the racecourse. The city, located on the Atlantic coast of Morocco, was a popular destination for European travelers during the early 1900s, and the horse race was a significant cultural event that attracted large crowds. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant traditions of Morocco during an era of change and exploration.
