EDITORS COMMENTS
Environs de Fez; Afrique du Nord, 1914" is a captivating photographic print from the 1910s, showcasing the outskirts of the ancient city of Fez in Morocco during the height of French colonial rule in North Africa. The image is taken from the renowned German publication "Grande Geographie Illustree," which was known for its high-quality maps and travelogues. The print offers a unique perspective of the Moroccan landscape, with Fez's red-roofed houses and winding streets nestled among the undulating hills and lush greenery. The city's medieval architecture, a testament to its rich history, stands in stark contrast to the modern European-style buildings and infrastructure that were being introduced during the colonial era. The print also serves as a reminder of the complex and intricate relationship between Europe and Africa during the 20th century. The French colonial empire had expanded its reach across North Africa, with Morocco becoming a protectorate in 1912. The print reflects the European fascination with the exoticism of Africa, as well as the desire to document and map the newly acquired territories. The photographic process used to create this print is not explicitly stated, but it is believed to be an engraving or a photomechanical process, which were popular methods for creating detailed and accurate maps during this time. The print's monochromatic palette adds to its timeless and evocative quality, transporting us back to a bygone era. Overall, "Environs de Fez; Afrique du Nord, 1914" is a captivating and historically significant image that offers a glimpse into the complex history of colonialism in North Africa and the enduring allure of the African continent.
