EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene of Casablanca's Clocktower Road, or Rue de l'Horloge, in the 1910s. The image transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and traditional Moroccan architecture. At the heart of the scene, the iconic Maurice Mauritius clocktower stands tall, its intricate design and ornate details drawing the eye. The clocktower, built in 1907, was a symbol of modernity and progress in the city during this period. It remains an enduring landmark and a popular tourist attraction today. The corner of the photograph showcases a striped awning, under which a shopkeeper displays his wares. The vibrant colors and textures of the merchandise contrast sharply with the muted tones of the surrounding buildings, adding a sense of energy and vitality to the image. The road is filled with a mix of people and vehicles, including horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, and automobiles. The diverse crowd reflects the multicultural nature of Casablanca, which was a melting pot of European and Middle Eastern influences during this period. The photograph also highlights the unique architectural blend of Moroccan and European styles, with traditional riad-style buildings juxtaposed against more modern, European-inspired structures. The use of arches, intricate tilework, and ornate balconies are all hallmarks of Moroccan architecture, while the straight lines and geometric shapes are reminiscent of European design. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Casablanca during the 1910s, a time of transformation and growth in the city's history.
