مدينة Morocco's Hidden Cities

Fascinated by the medinas, or Muslim districts, of Morocco's cities, leading French photographer Jean-Marc Tingaud received permission from the Moroccan Palace authorities to photograph these mysterious worlds of a bygone age. Capturing the historic past of a country over a thousand years old, each image in this book is like a painting, transporting the viewer into a timeless atmosphere of calm and neglected beauty. The photographs are accompanied by commentary by leading author Tahar Ben Jelloun, with excerpts artfully transcribed in Arabic calligraphy.
