EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Moroccan Clock, a remarkable architectural feature from Medersa Bo Anania in Fez city, Northern Morocco. Dating back to 1950, this clock holds a rich history that stretches even further into the past. Built by an enigmatic magician in 1357, it stands as a testament to the incredible craftsmanship of its time. Despite its partially destroyed state, the clock still exudes an undeniable charm and mystique. Its intricate design is adorned with thirteen bronze bowls that were once struck by clappers, producing enchanting melodies that echoed through the streets of Fez. This unique feature sets it apart from conventional clocks we encounter today. The photographer has skillfully captured this timeless piece against a backdrop of simplicity - stark black and white tones emphasize both the beauty and decay present in this historical artifact. The square format adds symmetry and balance to the composition while drawing attention to every detail. As you gaze upon this photograph, let yourself be transported back in time to an era where magic was woven into everyday life. Feel the weight of centuries-old stories carried within these walls and imagine how many generations have been captivated by its presence. Evans' masterful photography immortalizes not only a physical structure but also preserves a slice of Moroccan heritage for all admirers of fine art to appreciate.
