EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Tangier in 1860, where a Riffian nuptial dance is taking place. The Riffian or Rif Berber tribe, known for their rich cultural heritage, are celebrating a joyous occasion - a marriage. In this snapshot from the 19th century, we witness the essence of tradition as men dressed in elaborate traditional costumes jump and dance with exuberance. Their movements convey both excitement and pride, showcasing their deep-rooted customs that have been passed down through generations. Amidst the revelry, one man stands out with his shooting weapon firmly held in hand. This glimpse into their culture reveals that even during times of celebration, weaponry played an integral role for these North African tribesmen. The engraving captures not only the festive atmosphere but also provides valuable insight into the historical context of warfare prevalent during this era. It serves as a reminder that despite moments of merriment and unity, conflict was never far away. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece by an unknown creator featured in The Illustrated London News, our imagination transports us to Tangier's bustling streets filled with people clad in typical attire. This image encapsulates both the beauty of cultural traditions and offers a glimpse into life within Morocco's enchanting landscapes.
