EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene of Main Street in Tangier, Morocco, circa 1905. The narrow, steep road is filled with a lively mix of Moroccan people and European tourists, all making their way through the vibrant city. On the left, the iconic Cafe des Postes, a popular gathering place for travelers and locals alike, stands proudly with its distinctive red awning and ornate wrought-iron balconies. In the heart of the street, a department store with large glass windows showcases an array of intriguing merchandise, from Moroccan textiles and handicrafts to European novelties. The Petit Louvre, a smaller shop with a clock tower, can also be seen in the background, adding to the eclectic mix of architectural styles. The steep incline of the street and the diverse crowd make for an intriguing tableau of life in this North African city during the early 1900s.
