EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "THE BAMBOULA, 1885" showcases a scene from daily life in the late 19th century Deep South. Created by Edward Windsor Kemble in 1885, this drawing captures the essence of African American culture during that era. In the image, we see a group of men and women gathered in a circle, engrossed in the rhythmic beats of a drum played by a shirtless drummer. The dancers, barefoot and wearing headscarves, move gracefully to the music with their bodies swaying to its infectious rhythm. The spectators watch intently as they are drawn into this mesmerizing display. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays each figure with precision - from the ragged clothing worn by some individuals to the expressions on their faces reflecting joy and enthusiasm for this communal celebration. This artwork offers us a glimpse into an important aspect of African American heritage - their rich tradition of dance and music. "The Bam boula" serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of an era when African Americans expressed themselves through movement and sound despite facing adversity. It reminds us of their resilience and ability to find moments of joy amidst challenging circumstances. This print is part of The Granger Collection's art collection, allowing viewers today to appreciate not only Kemble's talent but also gain insight into an important chapter in American history.
