EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a tender moment between two Senegalese women in the year 1900. The image showcases the intricate art of hair plaiting, a traditional practice that has been passed down through generations in West Africa. The women are depicted with focused expressions, showcasing their skill and expertise in creating elaborate braided hairstyles. The attention to detail is evident as each strand is carefully woven together to create stunning patterns and designs. The vintage aesthetic of the photograph adds to its charm, transporting viewers back in time to a period when Senegal was under French colonial rule. Despite the historical context, the beauty and intimacy of this cultural tradition shine through. As one woman meticulously works on styling the other's hair, there is a sense of camaraderie and sisterhood captured in this moment. It serves as a reminder of the importance of community and connection within African cultures. This image not only celebrates the artistry of Senegalese women but also serves as a testament to their resilience and strength throughout history. It stands as a tribute to their heritage and traditions that continue to be cherished today.
