The capital city of Senegal, then a French colony known as French West Africa, was a vibrant hub of trade and commerce. The image showcases the Senegalese people, dressed in traditional attire, engaged in lively negotiations with traders from various ethnic groups. The market, filled with an array of colorful textiles, fresh produce, and intricately crafted goods, spills out onto the streets, where cars and horse-drawn carts navigate the narrow passages with caution. The atmosphere is alive with the sounds of haggling, the aromas of spices and cooked food, and the sights of bustling activity. The tradesmen, both Senegalese and European, are seen selling their wares with determination and enthusiasm, creating a dynamic scene that reflects the rich cultural diversity and economic vitality of the region. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life and commerce of Dakar during the 1930s.
