EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Edwin Lord Weeks that offers a glimpse into the bustling marketplace of Mogador (now known as Essaouira), Morocco in the late 19th century. The vibrant and lively composition showcases an array of vendors, both male and female, selling an abundance of fruits, vegetables, and other produce. The scene is further enriched by the presence of animals such as camels and horses, adding to the authenticity and charm of this Moroccan market. The architecture surrounding the market reflects the unique style prevalent in Mogador during that era. Weeks' meticulous attention to detail brings each element to life - from the intricate patterns on textiles to the expressions on people's faces. This masterpiece not only captures a specific moment in time but also serves as a valuable historical document showcasing traditional Moroccan culture. Displayed proudly at San Diego Museum of Art, USA, this artwork was generously gifted by Mr. John G. Pickard. Its significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its ability to transport viewers back in time to experience the sights and sounds of this vibrant marketplace. With its rich colors, diverse characters, and exquisite craftsmanship, "Market Scene at Mogador" invites us into a world where commerce intertwines with daily life against a backdrop of natural beauty - making it truly deserving of admiration for generations to come.
