EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "7176906" offers a glimpse into the 20th century's rich history. Taken in Africa during the early 1900s, it beautifully captures an intimate moment between a mother and her child. The image showcases the timeless act of breastfeeding, symbolizing nourishment, love, and maternal care. The artistry of this photograph lies not only in its subject matter but also in its composition. Crafted from bronze metal, it exudes a sense of solidity and permanence that mirrors the colonial architecture surrounding them. This juxtaposition highlights the complex relationship between colonizer and colonized during this era. As we observe this public monument frozen in time, we are reminded of Africa's colonial past and its impact on both African society and European powers like France. It serves as a visual reminder of colonization's lasting influence on culture, identity, and social structures. Through this lens, we witness the strength and resilience embodied by African women amidst challenging circumstances. Their role as nurturers is celebrated here; their femininity shines through as they navigate life within a changing world. This powerful artwork invites us to reflect upon our shared history while honoring the experiences of those who came before us. It stands as a testament to human connection across borders and generations—a poignant reminder that even amidst struggle, love endures.
