EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Le sultan du Maroc Abou-Yousouf emploie la poudre a canon pour lancer des graviers de fer, au siege de Sidjilmesa, en 1273" transports us back to the year 1273 in Morocco. The image depicts an extraordinary moment during the siege of Sidjilmesa, where Sultan Abou-Yousouf utilizes gunpowder to launch iron gravel. This remarkable scene is brought to life by the European School's intricate craftsmanship. This engraving was created in the 19th century and belongs to a private collection. It serves as an illustration for Louis Figuier's renowned work, "Les Merveilles De La Science ou Description Populaire des Inventions Modernes". Through this artwork, Figuier aimed to popularize and showcase the wonders of scientific progress and engineering inventions that emerged during the industrial revolution. The historical significance of this image lies not only in its portrayal of technological advancements but also in its depiction of warfare tactics employed by Sultan Abou-Yousouf. Gunpowder had revolutionized warfare across different parts of the world, and here we witness its application on Moroccan soil. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, we are reminded of how science and invention have shaped our history. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress throughout time.
