EDITORS COMMENTS
Avenue of the 4th Zouaves, Casablanca, Morocco (circa 1910s) - A captivating glimpse into the past, this photograph transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Casablanca, Morocco during the early 20th century. The Avenue of the 4th Zouaves, named after the French colonial infantry regiment, is a vibrant and lively scene filled with the sounds, sights, and energy of the city. The image is framed by the towering palm trees that line the avenue, their fronds casting dappled shadows on the sun-soaked pavement. The trees, a symbol of the tropical North African climate, add a sense of exotic allure to the scene. In the foreground, a horse-drawn carriage makes its way along the cobblestone road, its passengers gazing out at the passing scenery. The carriage is flanked by pedestrians, some dressed in European attire, while others wear traditional Moroccan garb. The Avenue of the 4th Zouaves was a popular destination for both locals and foreigners, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Casablanca during a time when it was a thriving hub of trade and commerce. The city's coastal location, with the Mediterranean Sea just beyond the horizon, added to its allure, making it a must-visit destination for travelers from around the world. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a fascinating window into the past, transporting us back to a time when Casablanca was a bustling and vibrant city, full of energy and excitement. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that can be found in Morocco and North Africa, and a testament to the enduring allure of this fascinating region.
