EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Abd Ar-Rahman, the Sultan of Morocco in 1845. Painted by Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroix, this oil on canvas artwork is a testament to the artist's visit to Morocco in 1832. The image depicts Moulay Abd-Er-Rahman emerging from his palace in Meknes, surrounded by his loyal guards and esteemed officers. Dressed in traditional costume and mounted on horseback, the Sultan exudes power and authority. The gathering crowd pays their respects as he passes by, demonstrating the reverence he commands as a Muslim leader. The fortified palace stands tall behind him, symbolizing his stronghold over the Moroccan people. The painting captures the essence of Islamic culture with its intricate details and orientalist style. From the ornate parasol shielding him from the sun to every brushstroke that brings life to his majestic steed, every element tells a story of Moroccan heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever – an iconic representation of leadership and tradition. This print serves as a reminder of Abd Ar-Rahman's significant role in history and offers us an opportunity to appreciate both Delacroix's artistic talent and Morocco's rich cultural tapestry.
