EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Tangiers in 1878, as depicted by American artist Edwin Lord Weeks. Painted with oil on canvas, this artwork showcases the vibrant city life and architectural beauty of Tangiers during the late nineteenth century. The scene unfolds outdoors, showcasing a bustling street scene filled with people going about their daily activities. Two animals - a donkey and a horse - add to the liveliness of the composition. A group of men can be seen engaged in conversation, while others stand nearby under an awning. Weeks' academic style is evident in his attention to detail and mastery of capturing light and shadow. The rich colors and intricate brushwork bring this orientalist painting to life, transporting viewers back in time to experience Tangier's unique atmosphere. As one explores this artwork further, it becomes clear that Weeks was deeply influenced by North Africa's culture and charm. His ability to depict both human figures and animals with precision adds depth to the composition. This print allows us to appreciate Weeks' artistic talent while providing a glimpse into Tangier's past. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to connect with different eras and cultures through visual storytelling.
