Stake attention in this memory
The image displays an overhead perspective of the Chouara Tannery in Fez, Morocco. The central area of the scene is an open-air complex densely packed with over one hundred stone vats, varying in circular and rectangular shapes. These vats contain liquids in a spectrum of colors, including various shades of brown, red, orange, yellow, gray, white, and blue, indicative of different stages of leather tanning. Numerous animal hides are submerged within these vats or draped over their edges. Several male workers are present among the vats, some standing inside or adjacent to them, actively manipulating the hides. The tannery is surrounded by multi-story buildings with light-colored, predominantly yellow or beige facades, featuring numerous windows. Multiple pieces of leather or hides are suspended from lines strung across the walls of these surrounding structures for drying. On the upper levels and balconies of these buildings, several individuals are observed, some positioned as spectators viewing the tannery below. The background reveals a dense urban landscape of similar ochre-colored buildings extending towards the horizon, all beneath a clear blue sky with scattered white clouds.
