EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time, showcasing Kenyan men engrossed in a game of cards back in 1922. The image is taken from the renowned publication "Peoples of All Nations, Their Life Today and the Story of Their Past" edited by JA Hammerton and published by the Educational Book Company. In this snapshot, we witness a group of Kenyan men deeply immersed in their pastime, sitting closely together as they engage in an intense card game. The expressions on their faces reveal both concentration and camaraderie, highlighting the universal joy that comes with friendly competition. The setting is undoubtedly Kenya, with its rich African heritage evident through the attire worn by these individuals. This image serves as a testament to the diverse cultural tapestry found within this beautiful country. As we delve into this piece of history from nearly a century ago, it reminds us that leisure activities have always been an integral part of human existence across different eras and locations. Despite being captured in monochrome tones, the essence of their enjoyment transcends time and color. This print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty captured within its frame but also offers us a glimpse into Kenya's vibrant past. It stands as a tribute to those who came before us while reminding us that moments like these are what truly connect people across generations.
