Tunisia’s president Ben Ali (since deposed) is usually portrayed wearing western clothes. This large poster, which dominates a major intersection in Tozeur, shows him wearing traditional garments. It is a shift in political iconography -- an appeal, no doubt, to those Tunisians who cherish traditional values. His strategists portray him here as a man of all the people. It would be the people of Tunisia who would eventually drive him from office in a January, 2011 revolt.
