Yarn dying is an age old metier

In the lovely Maison de la Photographie (www.maisondelaphotographie.ma) you get a taste of ancient times in Maroc, by a beautiful collection of sepia prints, done between 1870 and 1950. One of them shows how many wool dyers once thrived in Marrakesh. Seeing the interior now, time stood still. Inside that is. Outside all the others disappeared. Fortunately this yarn dyer is under protection of UNESCO.
