EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1800s in Morocco, where we witness a grand royal procession led by Sultan Abd al-Aziz IV. The vibrant colors of this printed halftone reproduction bring to life a 19th-century watercolor created by A. Schneider. The scene is filled with an air of majesty and tradition as the sultan's entourage parades through the city streets. The crowded thoroughfare buzzes with excitement as onlookers gather to catch a glimpse of their revered monarch. Parasols dot the procession, shielding members of the royal family from the scorching sun, while turbans and fezzes adorn their heads. Mounted on magnificent Arabian horses, riders proudly display their traditional attire, reflecting Morocco's rich cultural heritage. Native servants accompany them, adding depth and authenticity to this historic illustration. As we delve into Moroccan history through this remarkable artwork, it becomes evident that Islam plays a significant role in shaping its society. The sultan's presence symbolizes his position as head of state and leader within the Muslim community. Beyond its artistic value, this print offers us a window into North African history during an era when walled cities like these were bustling centers of trade and culture. It serves as a testament to Morocco's enduring legacy and provides us with an opportunity to appreciate its diverse traditions that have stood strong for centuries.
