EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of Shoua women from the Kanem Empire, located in present-day Chad and Libya. The image depicts two women, one holding a baby close to her chest while the other stands poised with a spear in hand. In the background, an archer from the town of Murja in the Bambara empire (Mali) is seen readying his bow.
The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these figures to life, showcasing their strength and resilience. The woman cradling her child exudes maternal love and protection, while the spear-wielding warrior embodies courage and determination.
Created by Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche in Meissen, Germany between 1835-1840 for his book "Galerie complete en tableaux fideles des peuples d'Afrique," this lithograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of African peoples. Each figure is meticulously portrayed with authenticity and respect for their traditions.
