EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Moment of Peace by an Old Moorish Well in Merida, Spain" This evocative black and white lantern slide captures a serene moment in the heart of Merida, Spain. The image, titled Slide 34 of Box 148 and dated to the 1890s, depicts an Old Moorish Well, a historical landmark that stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this ancient city. The well, with its intricate geometric patterns and golden hues, is the focal point of the photograph. The well's age and history are palpable, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. A golden-coloured dog lies calmly in front of the well, its eyes closed in contentment. The dog's presence adds a sense of tranquility to the scene, as if it has been a part of the well's history for centuries. To the side of the well, a young boy sits, his gaze fixed on the dog. His simple attire and the traditional Spanish hat on his head indicate that he is a local. The boy's posture and expression suggest a deep connection to the land and its history. He seems to be lost in thought, perhaps contemplating the stories that the well might hold. The Old Moorish Well in Merida is a reminder of the city's Moorish past and the harmonious coexistence of different cultures. This black and white lantern slide offers a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Merida during the 1890s, making it an invaluable piece of historical documentation.
