EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of Sir Charles Euan-Smith's Mission to the Court of Morocco, specifically showcasing the breathtaking ruins of Volubilis near Fez. The image takes us back to the 19th century, when this illustration was featured in The Graphic on June 11,1892. The scene depicts a remarkable topography with remnants of ancient structures scattered across the landscape. One cannot help but be mesmerized by the triumphal arch and shrine that stand as testaments to a rich history and cultural heritage. These ruins hold great significance as they are believed to be connected to Mulai Idris, considered one of Morocco's most revered Muslim saints and known as the father of Fez. As we delve into this visual journey, we can almost imagine ourselves wandering through this Moroccan town, surrounded by these awe-inspiring remains. It is evident that Sir Charles Euan-Smith's mission sought not only political diplomacy but also an appreciation for Morocco's historical treasures. Through intricate engraving techniques employed by English School artists from that era, every detail comes alive in this print. This artwork serves as a window into another time and place – transporting us back centuries while simultaneously reminding us of our shared human history. This lithograph truly encapsulates both the beauty and grandeur found within these ancient ruins at Volubilis near Fez – an enduring testament to Morocco's rich past and vibrant culture.
