EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting moment of a street minstrel in the exotic city of Tangier, Morocco, playing the local three-stringed guitar-type instrument known as a Gimbri. Dating back to the 1920s, this image transports us back in time to the vibrant and eclectic atmosphere of the North African metropolis during the 1920s. The itinerant singer, with his expressive eyes and captivating smile, engages the audience with his soulful melodies, creating a magical connection between the performer and the onlookers. The warm, golden light of the setting sun casts a gentle glow over the scene, adding to the sense of timelessness and wonder. The Gimbri, an essential part of Moroccan musical tradition, is a unique and intriguing instrument, with its distinctive shape and sound resonating deeply with the rich cultural heritage of the region. This photograph is a beautiful testament to the power of music to transcend boundaries and bring people together, offering a glimpse into the captivating world of Moroccan street life in the 1920s.
