EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Cristina Aldehuela, we are transported to the heart of a royal ceremony in Ghana. The image showcases a man gracefully carrying a traditional umbrella while patiently waiting amidst the solemnity and grandeur of the occasion. The ceremony depicted here is held in honor of Nana Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem II, the 13th queen mother of the Asante Kingdom (Asantehemaa), who passed away on November 24,2016. The significance and importance of this event can be felt through every detail portrayed in the photograph. The man's attire, adorned in black clothing, symbolizes mourning and respect for the departed queen mother. His presence exudes dignity as he stands tall under his vibrant umbrella – an emblematic accessory that holds cultural significance within Ghanaian traditions. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into African royalty and its rich heritage. It reminds us of how deeply rooted customs continue to shape communities across Africa. Through her lens, Aldehuela captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us to appreciate and celebrate different cultures from around the world.
