EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken circa 1920, we find ourselves at the Bab Dekakene Gateway in the ancient city of Fez, Morocco, North Africa. The Bab Dekakene, also known as Bab Dekkaken or Bab Dekaken, is one of the twelve historic gates of the Fez medina, the labyrinthine old quarter of the city. This magnificent gateway, adorned with intricate geometric and floral patterns, served as a crucial entrance to the city, with its towering walls and imposing arches standing as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Morocco. As we gaze into the scene, we see a bustling crowd gathered around the gateway, their faces filled with excitement and curiosity. Veiled women, their faces obscured by traditional Moroccan head coverings, watch the festivities unfold from the safety of the shadows. The air is thick with anticipation as the sounds of a distant parade echo through the narrow streets. The towering walls of the gateway loom overhead, their ancient stones bearing witness to countless stories of the past. The atmosphere is one of celebration and joy, as the people of Fez come together to mark a special festival or holiday. The vibrant colors and lively energy of the scene transport us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment of history and culture that continues to captivate and inspire us today. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich and complex history of Morocco and the enduring allure of its ancient cities.
