This photograph captures the essence of Togo's rich cultural heritage. Taken in 1966, it showcases the traditional king of Abomay, a small village in Togo. The king is depicted wearing an elaborate ethnic costume that reflects his noble status and deep-rooted traditions. Every detail in this portrait speaks volumes about the history and identity of Togo's population. The king's clothing is adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, symbolizing the diversity and creativity within their culture. He holds a magnificent umbrella as an accessory, signifying his regal authority and protection over his people. The image provides a glimpse into the anthropology, ethnography, and folklore of Togo. It represents the resilience of black Africans throughout history while shedding light on their unique customs and rituals passed down through generations. Quilici Folco masterfully captured not only the physical appearance but also the aura surrounding this royal figure. His expert composition highlights every aspect of nobility exuded by this traditional king - from his dignified posture to his serene expression. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder of our shared humanity across different cultures and nations. It invites us to appreciate our collective past while celebrating individual identities that contribute to our global tapestry. This print from Alinari allows us to delve into Togo's fascinating history through one man's portrayal - a testament to both Quilici Folco’s artistic talent behind the lens and Togo’s enduring legacy as a nation proud of its heritage.
