EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite in the bustling port city of Tangier, Morocco, circa 1900. A line of camels, their humped silhouettes standing out against the backdrop of the setting sun, rest at the edge of the city. The camel caravan, a common sight in the region during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was a vital means of transportation for the indigenous people and their goods. The city of Tangier, with its unique blend of European and Middle Eastern influences, is visible in the background, with its colorful buildings, winding streets, and architectural landmarks. The urban landscape is a testament to the rich cultural history of this ancient city, which has been a melting pot of different ethnicities and traditions for centuries. The people in the photograph, dressed in their native attire, add to the ethnographic significance of the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of exploration and discovery, when travel was an adventure and the world was a much larger, more mysterious place.
