EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the vast and rugged beauty of the Desert of the Somalis coast, located in present-day Republic of Djibouti. Taken on a glass plate in the late 19th century, this image transports us back in time to an era when exploration and adventure were at their peak.
In the foreground, we see a group of camels making their way through the desert, carrying supplies for what appears to be a long journey. The animals are well-adapted to their harsh environment, with their humps filled with reserves of fat that help them survive in arid conditions.
In the background, we catch a glimpse of human figures dressed in traditional attire, adding a sense of scale to the vast expanse of sand dunes stretching out before them. This scene speaks to a bygone era when caravans were essential for trade and transportation across Africa's central regions.
The photographer has expertly captured not just the physical landscape but also the spirit of resilience and determination that defines those who call this unforgiving terrain home. It is a testament to both nature's raw power and humanity's ability to adapt and thrive even in the most challenging environments.
