EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant and diverse activities of the tribe in the village of Adouma, located in Africa. Taken from "Journey in the West African" by Brazza in 1888, this engraving after a drawing by Riou beautifully depicts the daily life and customs of this native African population. In this scene, we see a multitude of activities taking place simultaneously. A group of villagers is engaged in leisurely pursuits on their boats, gracefully navigating through the river. The dugout canoes are not only a means of transport but also serve as vessels for exploration and trade. The energy within the village is palpable as people engage in various games and recreational activities along the riverbank. Children play joyfully, engrossed in traditional games that have been passed down through generations. These moments capture both innocence and resilience amidst their surroundings. The artist Leonard de Selva skillfully brings to life these scenes with his expert photography skills, capturing every intricate detail that tells a story about civilization and culture within Africa. This print serves as an invaluable glimpse into another world - one filled with community spirit, tradition, and vitality. It reminds us of our shared humanity across continents while celebrating the unique beauty found within different cultures around the globe.
