EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Mary Jeliffe transports us to the enchanting Goree Island Museum of Diaspora Fort d'Estrees in Senegal. The image captures the essence of this architectural marvel, showcasing its intricate design and historical significance. Goree Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holds immense cultural importance as it served as a major hub for the transatlantic slave trade during the 15th to 19th centuries. The museum itself is housed within Fort d'Estrees, an imposing structure that stands as a poignant reminder of Senegal's painful past. The photograph beautifully portrays the fort's unique blend of European and African architectural styles. Its weathered walls tell stories of resilience and survival while exuding an air of solemnity that resonates with visitors from around the world. As we gaze at this stunning image, we can almost feel ourselves stepping back in time, immersing ourselves in history. It serves as a visual testament to humanity's capacity for both cruelty and compassion. Mary Jeliffe has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the emotional weight carried by this iconic landmark. Her keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every nook and cranny of this historic site. In conclusion, through her lens, Mary Jeliffe invites us on a journey to Goree Island Museum of Diaspora Fort d'Estrees – an evocative place where architecture meets memory and where lessons from our shared past continue to shape our present-day understanding
