Sotheby's The colours of Morocco 2025

Description

A high-angle architectural shot captures the geometric layout of traditional Moroccan tannery dye vats. Each stone compartment is filled with distinct natural pigments in saturated shades of yellow, crimson, green, terracotta, and ochre. Whitewashed stone walls and masonry divide the grid of liquid dye basins, with wooden poles and stirrers laid across the partitions under harsh natural sunlight.
