EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Tangiers, a city in North Africa, during the early 20th century. Titled "Fantasia on the great Sokko" this image showcases a thrilling horse race taking place amidst a picturesque backdrop. The photograph, taken by an anonymous European photographer from the 19th century, is part of a private collection. It was originally published in Ernst Wasmuth's book "Picturesque North Africa" in 1925 and later reproduced as a gravure print. In this scene, we see several horses racing at full speed with their jockeys urging them on. The spectators are filled with excitement as they watch this exhilarating sport unfold before their eyes. The energy and intensity of the moment are palpable through the lens of the camera. The image not only highlights the beauty and grace of these magnificent animals but also provides us with a glimpse into life in Tangiers during that era. It serves as a testament to both cultural diversity and shared passions across different regions. With its historical significance and artistic composition, this print from Bridgeman Images offers viewers an opportunity to travel back in time and experience the thrill of horse racing in early 20th-century Tangiers.
