EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that offers a glimpse into the life of a wealthy indigenous man from Adrar, Mauritania, during the early 20th century.

The photograph depicts the exterior of the man's impressive courtyard, adorned with tall, intricately designed walls, which serve as a testament to his affluence. The courtyard, a common architectural feature in traditional Mauritanian houses, is a tranquil oasis in the arid Sahara Desert. The man's wealth is further emphasized by the grandeur of the buildings and the imposing walls, which seem to radiate a sense of power and prestige. The photograph is a fascinating window into the past, providing a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy elite in Mauritania during the colonial era.
