EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant essence of Marrakech's bustling souk, as dyed leather hides are left to dry in the sun-soaked streets of Medina. The intricate craft of leatherwork is on full display here, showcasing Morocco's rich artistic heritage. The image transports us to a world where time seems to stand still, as skilled artisans meticulously dye and prepare these hides for their transformation into beautiful leather goods. The narrow alleyways of the medina come alive with bursts of color, as each hide adds its unique hue to the tapestry of this ancient city. Marrakech itself becomes a character in this photograph; its exotic charm and chaotic energy palpable through every pixel. It is a place where tradition meets modernity, where centuries-old craftsmanship intertwines with contemporary life. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, our senses are awakened by the earthy scent that permeates the air and the sounds of haggling merchants echoing through the labyrinthine streets. We can almost feel the warmth radiating from those drying hides under North Africa's scorching sun. Nico Tondini/Robert Harding has masterfully captured not just an image but a story within it - one that invites us to explore Marrakech's soulful souks and immerse ourselves in its vibrant culture. This photograph serves as a visual reminder that travel is not merely about reaching destinations but about experiencing moments like these that stay etched in our memories forever.
