EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time in Senegal, Dakar, dating back to 1860. The image showcases an African family captured by the lens of Noal, offering a glimpse into the lives of West African individuals during the 19th century.
The family depicted exudes a sense of unity and tradition as they pose for the camera in their traditional costumes. The parents stand proudly beside their children, embodying resilience and strength despite the challenges faced during colonial times.
The photograph not only serves as a historical document but also as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Senegal. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on the complexities of European colonialism in Africa and its impact on indigenous communities.
Through this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving and honoring our ancestral traditions while also acknowledging the resilience and dignity of those who came before us. It is a poignant reminder that history is not just about dates and events but about real people with stories worth telling.
Thanks to Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder for making this powerful piece available for us to appreciate and learn from.
