EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily scene of milk sellers at the market in N'Djamena (Fort-Lamy), Chad, during the 1930s. The women, dressed in traditional African attire, are expertly braiding each other's hair as they go about their work. With gourds and pots balanced on their heads, they skillfully pour milk from flasks into holders for customers. The market bustles with activity, as people go about their business in this bustling African city. The women's intricately braided hairstyles are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Chad and Central Africa. Their hair is carefully braided into complex designs, often adorned with beads and other decorative elements. The braiding process is a social activity, with women often gathering together to help each other create their intricate styles. Despite the hustle and bustle of the market, there is a sense of community and connection among the milk sellers.

The gourds and pots, traditional milk holders, add to the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back in time to this vibrant African marketplace.
