EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver print captures a recent portrait of Khama III, the esteemed king of the Bamangwato people in Bechuanaland, now known as Botswana. Taken in 1921 by Neville Jones, this photograph showcases the head and shoulders of Khama III during the colonial era. Khama III's reign marked a significant period for his country as it transitioned into a British protectorate. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of his leadership and influence during this transformative time. The image exudes an air of dignity and strength, reflecting Khama III's status as a revered chieftain within the African community. Measuring at 15.1x10.9 cm, this private collection print is an invaluable historical artifact that sheds light on both African history and British imperialism. It offers viewers a glimpse into the life and persona of one of Africa's notable figures from that era. Photography enthusiasts will appreciate how this gelatin silver print beautifully captures every intricate detail with its monochromatic palette. The work exemplifies Jones' skillful composition while highlighting Khama III's regal presence. Preserved by eMichael Graham-Stewart, this photograph from Bridgeman Images holds immense cultural significance beyond its aesthetic appeal. It invites us to reflect upon the complexities surrounding colonialism, identity, power dynamics, and historical narratives associated with Africa under British rule.
