Framed Print of Top of the Parasol, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Top of the Parasol, 1844. One of the trophies taken by the French army from the Moors, consisting of the Tent of the eldest son of the Emperor [Muhammad IV of Morocco], and the Parasol of the Emperor [Abd al-Rahman] himself. It was displayed in Paris. The Parasol (el d Alala), which was planted in front of the tent, was seized by the French soldiers from the midst of the black troops...It is round in shape, and is supported by a large handle of pine wood...The top of it is amaranth coloured silk, with embroideries in silver gilt, which are admirable both for their elegance and correctness of design; they are arabesques of flowers, remarkable for their lightness and boldness; the inside is green silk, with flowers of gold. The ribs...are of gilded wood; the parasol is surmounted by a ball of gilt silver... From Illustrated London News, 1844, Vol I.
