EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite zellij tilework of the Bou Inania Madrasa, a stunning example of Moroccan School ceramic art from the 14th century. Located in Fes, Morocco, this historic madrasa was founded by Abu Inan Faris between AD 1351-56 during the Marinid dynasty. The intricate geometric patterns and ornate designs adorning these tiles reflect the Moorish style prevalent during that era. The mesmerizing combination of vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship creates a visual feast for admirers of Islamic art. Each individual tile is meticulously decorated with precision and care, showcasing the mastery of Moroccan artisans.

The Bou Inania Madrasa stands as a testament to both religious education and artistic expression within Muslim culture. Its rich history and cultural importance make it an iconic landmark in Fes, attracting visitors from around the world who marvel at its beauty.
