EDITORS COMMENTS
The Bambaras attack the Besiegers; Journey from the Senegal to the Niger," is an evocative and dramatic image from the 1875 publication "Illustrated Travels" by H.W. Bates. This photograph, captured during the late 19th century in Africa, depicts a pivotal moment in the Bambara resistance against European forces attempting to siege their territories in present-day Mali. The scene is set in the African savannah, with a vast expanse of golden grasslands stretching out in the background. At the forefront, a group of Bambara warriors, led by Ahmadu Tall, Ahmadou Sekou Tall, and Ahmad al Madani al-Kabir at Tijani, charge towards the besiegers on horseback. The European soldiers, dressed in uniforms and armed with rifles, are shown in disarray as they attempt to defend themselves against the relentless attack. The image is a testament to the courage and resilience of the Bambara people during a time of intense colonial expansion. The photograph also highlights the complex dynamics of power and resistance in Africa during the late 19th century. The Bambara warriors, led by their spiritual and military leaders, were able to mount a formidable resistance against the European forces, despite being outnumbered and outgunned. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Africa, and the complex interplay of politics, religion, and warfare that shaped the continent during this period. The image is also a powerful visual representation of the complex relationship between Africa and Europe during the colonial era, and the ongoing struggle for self-determination and independence. This photograph, from the collection of The Print Collector, is an important historical document that sheds light on an often overlooked chapter of African history. It is a reminder of the bravery and resilience of the African people, and the enduring legacy of their struggles for freedom and self-determination.
