EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of diplomacy and hospitality during the tumultuous period of World War II in North Africa. The image features Said Idris Al-Senussi, the King of Libya and Cyrenaica, entertaining a distinguished party of sheiks from the Margarba tribe. The scene is set in a grand, ornately decorated tent, with the desert sun casting long shadows over the sandy terrain outside. The year is estimated to be around 1944, a time when Libya was a significant battleground in the war. The King, dressed in traditional Libyan attire, sits regally on a raised platform, surrounded by the sheiks who have gathered to pay their respects. Their faces are etched with the lines of age and wisdom, their robes adorned with intricate patterns and embroidery. The atmosphere is one of respect and camaraderie, with the King and the sheiks engaged in animated conversation. This photograph offers a glimpse into the complex political landscape of North Africa during the war, where alliances and allegiances shifted constantly. Said Idris Al-Senussi was a key figure in the region, and his ability to maintain the loyalty of the various tribes was crucial to his rule. The Margarba tribe, one of the largest and most influential in the region, played a significant role in the political dynamics of Libya during this time. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terry Parker, was originally published in a magazine in the February of the 1940s. It is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Libya and the resilience of its people during a time of great upheaval and change.
