EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Courtyard of the medieval Muslim college, known as the Attarine Medersa. Founded in 1325, this architectural gem is located in Fes, Morocco, a city steeped in history and rich cultural heritage. The image transports us to an enchanting world where artistry and craftsmanship merge seamlessly. The intricate tilework, or zellij, adorns every inch of the courtyard's walls and floors with mesmerizing patterns that evoke a sense of awe and wonder. Each tile meticulously placed by skilled hands tells a story of ancient traditions passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this stunning scene, we can almost hear echoes of students' footsteps resonating through time. The medersa served as both a school and a place for leisurely contemplation during its heyday. Its grand columns stand tall like guardians protecting knowledge within these hallowed walls. Fes itself comes alive within this photograph – its bustling medina (old town) just beyond those ornate archways beckoning visitors to explore its narrow streets filled with vibrant markets and hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. Recognized by UNESCO for its outstanding universal value, this architectural masterpiece serves as a testament to North Africa's rich Islamic heritage. Through this print captured by NI from Discover Images by AWL, we are transported into an era long gone but forever preserved in breathtaking splendor.
