EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant celebration of Fete du Beyram (Aid) et sacrifice du mouton au Maroc, a traditional festival in Morocco. Taken from the book "Habits et coutumes des peuples" published in Paris in 1814, this engraving by the French School provides a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of North Africa. The scene depicts a bustling street filled with people dressed in traditional African attire, engaging in a ritualistic ceremony. The focus is on a young girl who stands amidst the crowd, her presence symbolizing both innocence and participation in this important religious event. The festival itself is deeply rooted in Muslim customs and beliefs. It involves the sacrificial offering of a sheep as an act of devotion to Allah during Eid al-Adha or Feast of Sacrifice. This significant moment exemplifies how religion plays an integral role within Moroccan society. Through this historical image, we are transported back to 19th-century Morocco, where ancient traditions blend harmoniously with modern life. The artist's attention to detail highlights not only the beauty but also the authenticity of Arab civilization and its enduring customs. Leonard de Selva's photograph serves as a testament to our shared human experiences across different cultures and religions. It reminds us that despite our differences, celebrations like these unite us through tradition, community spirit, and faith.
