Maryam did an interview on her blog with
Alan Keohane , a British photographer, now living in Marrakesh that caught my attention. "
Alan Keohane’s images of Moroccans are some of Morocco’s best known and most loved. His touching portraits of nomads with their camels, Berber women from the Atlas mountains, fantasia horsemen in full regalia, and young beauties preparing for hammam, can be found for purchase in upscale boutiques throughout Marrakech." I fell in love with his images of the desert and went to bed dreaming Lawrence of Arabia dreams. I have to have one of his pieces!!!!!! He wrote a book in 1994
Bedouin Nomads of the Desert which is now out of print and is only available used at the UK Amazon store. I have just put my order in for one and now I can hardly wait to receive it in the mail.

ReplyDeleteHi Peak of Chic
ReplyDeleteMaryam's blog is great. I want to go to Marrakesh!!!! Don't you love David Hicks. I think this room was done in the early 70's and is so current now. Note the white antlers over the fireplace which are so overused now. He is still inspiring us 30 years later.
Oh Yes!! Love Maryam and her blog!
ReplyDeleteI remember when shs featured Alan Keohane.
I will go to Marrakesh in my life too!!!
