Description
Moroccan women and their families receive many guests at all hours and as a sign of hospitality they always offer their famous tea, fresh juices and pastries, however if guests arrive at meal time they would consider it impolite not to join them. This is a portrait of a lady who is very curious as to who is arriving at the door. (As a note: some old entrance doors were double with two different knockers, one large, one small which made different sounds allowing the maid to determine if it was a man or a woman at the door as their were no windows in the doors.)
