Moroccan Moorish Market
Moroccan Moorish Market (rather a folly/fraud of an image, as it depicts an Ottoman Fountain in Morocco, even though the Ottoman Empire never stretched as far as Morocco....!). Date: circa 1910s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the bustling atmosphere of a Moroccan marketplace in the early 1900s, a time when the exotic allure of North Africa drew travelers from around the world. The scene is filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of trade and commerce, as merchants and locals barter over goods spread out on colorful textiles. At the center of it all, an ornate Ottoman-style fountain adds a touch of fantasy and intrigue to the scene. However, upon closer inspection, this image reveals a fascinating deception. The Ottoman Empire, which is depicted in the image, never actually extended its reach to Morocco. The inclusion of the Ottoman fountain in this Moroccan market is a curious anomaly, perhaps a deliberate attempt to create a more alluring and exotic tableau for the viewing public. Despite this historical inaccuracy, the image remains a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the rich cultural exchange that took place between Africa and Europe during this period. The Moorish architecture, with its intricate patterns and vibrant colors, adds to the sense of wonder and enchantment, transporting us back in time to a place of mystery and adventure.
