EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Fashoda of To-Day" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print showcases a scene from Sudan's past that was featured in The Illustrated London News on July 26,1902. The image transports us to Fashoda, where we witness the bustling activity of everyday life. In the foreground stands a government building under construction, symbolizing progress and development. A vibrant market place unfolds before our eyes, with merchants showcasing their wares and locals engaging in lively exchanges. In the distance, we catch sight of a review taking place – perhaps an inspection by the Sirdar himself. This event adds an air of importance and authority to the scene. Beyond lies Kodok, its landscape dotted with lush gardens belonging to influential marchands. As our gaze wanders further into the frame, we encounter Dinkas going about their daily routines amidst Khor Adar's serene beauty. Their presence reminds us of Sudan's rich cultural diversity. Through this remarkable photograph captured through early photography techniques, we are transported back in time to experience Fashoda as it existed over a century ago. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic testament to human civilization's continuous evolution.
