EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an elderly Jewish man, deeply engrossed in his daily routine, outside his humble abode in Morocco, North Africa, around the turn of the 20th century. The man is seen sitting cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by various objects that suggest a connection to his faith. The most prominent among these objects is the intricately designed Jewish money charger or Golem Stangle, which is placed before him. This ancient amulet, believed to bring prosperity and protection, is a cherished possession of the Jewish community in Morocco and other parts of North Africa. The man's weathered face, creased with the passage of time, bears the marks of a life lived in the sun-drenched landscapes of Morocco. The lantern next to him indicates that this scene might have been captured during the twilight hours, adding a sense of mystery and intrigue to the image. The simple, earth-toned walls of his house, with its arched doorway, offer a glimpse into the traditional architecture of the region. This photograph, part of the Boswell Collection, offers a rare and intimate look into the daily life of a Jewish community in Morocco during a time when such images were not commonly captured. It serves as a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and diversity that exists within the North African region.
