Morocco of Photographers

Since 1860, Morocco amazes and inspires photographers. Landscapes, portraits, architectures, are the objects of their fascination.

The exhibition "The Morocco of Photographers" shows how much Morocco has declined modernity since 1860 nowadays. Original photographs, albumen papers, glass plates, autochromes, silver papers, show the photographic wealth in Morocco.
The poster photograph was taken by Jean Besancenot, in 1939.
An important set of photographs by Didier Madras, who was Lyautey's secretary from 1921 at 1934 and author of several books on Morocco is shown in this exhibition.
