EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that offers a glimpse into the past of Dakar, Senegal, during the early 20th century when it was a French colony in West Africa. The image, published in "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree" in 1914, depicts a bustling outdoor scene of the village, with a mix of white and black residents going about their daily lives. The photograph showcases a series of buildings, both European-style houses with red-tiled roofs and traditional African huts, arranged haphazardly along the coastline. The houses, with their distinct architectural styles, reflect the cultural fusion that was taking place during the colonial era. The village is bustling with activity, with people of all ages and backgrounds moving about, some carrying goods on their heads, while others are engaged in various tasks. The photograph also highlights the unique location of Dakar, with the ocean serving as a backdrop, adding to the picturesque beauty of the scene. The image offers a rare insight into the daily life of Dakar during the colonial era, providing a snapshot of a time when different cultures and traditions came together to shape the history of this vibrant African city. The photograph's creator remains unknown, but it serves as an important historical document that captures the essence of Dakar's rich and diverse past. The image is a reminder of the complex and intriguing history of West Africa and its people, and the enduring impact of colonialism on the continent. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of African history, geography, or culture.
