ANONYMOUS EL MINZA HOTEL TANGIER.
37x24 3/4 inches. Morrison & Gib.
Condition A.
Built in 1930, the Minza Hotel was constructed under the guidance of British aristocracy, yet was designed completely in the Moorish style, reflecting traditional Moroccan architecture. The hotel is situated on the Strait of Gibraltar, with great views of the Bay of Tangier and the Rif Mountains inland. For years it was an international destination, a confluence of luxury and exoticism.
