AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Original prints (19x) for the literary photo book.: Sur les pas des écrivains voyageurs" (Maroc: In the footsteps of traveling writers) by Gabriel Veyre: photographer and cameraman (associated with the Lumière brothers) who worked in Morocco in the early 20th century and produced a substantial body of photos and films about the country and Philippe Jacquier: a recent researcher/editor who has published works and catalogs on Gabriel Veyre (for example a book on "Gabriel Veyre's Morocco 1901-1936").

Philippe Jacquier: a recent researcher/editor who has published works and catalogs on Gabriel Veyre (for example a book on "Gabriel Veyre's Morocco 1901-1936").

The book follows the explorations of six different authors, artists and explorers who traveled through Morocco from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. It highlights their travel impressions and artistic vision of the country, which at the time in Europe was known as the "Extrême-Occident" (the Far West of the Islamic world).

The focus lies on the transitional period from the end of the 19th century to the mid-20th century, with the journeys taking place along the Moroccan royal capitals (such as Fez and Marrakech) to the distant, mysterious borders of the Sahara.
There is an attempt to reveal the "mysterious and enchanting face" of historic Morocco through the eyes of these early Western travelers.

Guy Joubert is in the photographic world best known for his extensive, historically important private collection of early photos of Morocco and North Africa from 1870 to 1939. His collection has been shown in major exhibitions, such as at the Maison de la Photographie Robert Doisneau.

One side of the prints has a very light discoloration on the edges. not on the photos themselves.
