EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching on paper, titled 'Guard of the Casbah in Tetuan' by Mariano Jose Maria Bernardo Fortuny y Carbo, transports us to the 19th century and the exotic allure of Morocco. The image showcases a group of men, standing guard at the entrance of a fortified castle or casbah, located in the city of Tetuan in Tangier, Morocco. The men, dressed in traditional attire, are mounted on horses, their stern expressions conveying a sense of duty and vigilance. The keystone archway behind them frames the entrance to the casbah, adding an element of grandeur and mystery. The etching's intricate details bring to life the textures of the stone fortifications, the horses' coats, and the men's clothing. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Morocco and the art of orientalism. This etching is part of the vast collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the institute's commitment to preserving and sharing important works of art from around the world.
