EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of tradition and history in Essaouira, Morocco. In the frame, an old Muslim man gracefully walks beneath the towering arches of the city gate and ramparts. Dressed in a vibrant blue traditional costume, he embodies the cultural heritage that has been passed down through generations. The architectural marvels surrounding him speak volumes about the rich history of this coastal town. The weathered walls and arched structures tell stories of battles fought and victories won, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for this scene. As we gaze at this image, we are transported to a different time and place. We can almost feel the cool Atlantic breeze brushing against our skin as we imagine ourselves strolling alongside this wise elder. The moored boats nearby remind us of Essaouira's historical significance as a bustling port city. In every detail captured by Stuart Black/Robert Harding's lens, there is an undeniable sense of authenticity. From the clear blue sky above to the people going about their daily lives in traditional clothing in the background, it all adds to our understanding of Moroccan culture. This photograph serves as a window into both past and present; it invites us to explore not only Essaouira but also North Africa itself – its beauty, its traditions, and its enduring spirit.
