EDITORS COMMENTS
Travel Views of Morocco, 1904" is a captivating photograph by Arnold Genthe that transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases a scenic view of a Moroccan town, with its fortified walls and outskirts dotted with tents and people. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Morocco, with men and women dressed in traditional clothing adorning the scene. In the foreground, we see a group of men wearing long, flowing robes and turbans, engaged in conversation. Their attire is a stark contrast to the more modest dress of the women, who are clad in long, flowing dresses that cover their heads and bodies. One woman is seen wearing a veil, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The photograph also highlights the geographical features of Morocco, with the town nestled at the foot of a mountain range. The fortifications, with their intricate designs and towering walls, dominate the skyline, adding to the sense of history and tradition. Arnold Genthe's use of a nitrate negative enhances the detail and texture of the image, allowing us to see every crease in the clothing and every wrinkle in the fortifications. The photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of people and the landscapes of Morocco over a century ago. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of travel photography or cultural heritage art. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to thrive in Morocco and beyond. The Library of Congress is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful image in its collection for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
