EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the vibrant city of Tunis in 1910. The image showcases the exquisite Arabic portico of a Moresco style building, an architectural gem that stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Tunisia. In this scene, three men dressed in traditional ethnic clothing take center stage. Their attire reflects both their national identity and their connection to the diverse populations that have shaped Tunisian history. Each man exudes a sense of masculinity and pride, standing tall against the backdrop of intricate building elements and decorative sections. The photographer, Wilhelm von Gloeden, masterfully captures not only the physical beauty of this portico but also its significance within Tunisian society. Through his lens, we are invited to explore not just architecture but also anthropology and ethnography – gaining insight into the traditions and folklore that have shaped Arab Berber culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, it is impossible not to be captivated by its timeless allure. It serves as a visual reminder of our shared human history while celebrating the unique identities that make up our global tapestry. Whether displayed on a gallery wall or cherished within a personal collection, this print from Alinari offers more than just aesthetic pleasure; it tells a story – one that invites us to appreciate diversity, honor tradition, and embrace our collective past.
