EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the early 1910s in Gabon, Africa, showcasing the unique blend of African and European cultures that once existed. In the heart of the Gabonese Republic, two European colonials, dressed in their formal attire, sit comfortably in a carriage, seemingly unfazed by the unusual mode of transportation pulling them. The carriage is not drawn by horses, but rather by a domesticated zebra, its stripes a stark contrast against the lush green foliage that surrounds them. The Gabonese people were known for their innovative use of zebras as a source of transportation, and this image offers a rare glimpse into this fascinating practice. The zebra, with its powerful build and determined expression, appears to relish in its role as the powerful engine behind the carriage. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange that took place between Africa and Europe during the colonial era. The scene is one of tranquility and serenity, with the gentlemen passengers seemingly at ease as they are transported through the picturesque landscape. The image offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the natural beauty of Gabon and the ingenuity of its people were celebrated and embraced in the most unexpected ways.
