EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Ole Senteu Simel, a remarkable figure in Maasai culture. As the grandson of the renowned Msai Laibon Mbatian, his lineage and wisdom were deeply respected by his community until his passing in 1986. Taken just three weeks before his death, this photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the life of this revered elder. Ole Senteu Simel stands tall and proud, adorned in traditional Maasai dress that reflects the rich cultural heritage he embodies. His fur cape, made from monkeyskin, adds an element of regality to his appearance. With piercing eyes that seem to hold ancient knowledge and clairvoyant abilities, he exudes an aura of wisdom and spiritual insight. The image showcases not only Ole Senteu Simel as an individual but also represents the indigenous Maasai tribe as a whole. It serves as a testament to their deep-rooted traditions and customs that have withstood the test of time.
