EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The size of the teeth in the Okanda" takes us back to a journey through Gabon and the Ogoue River in 1875-1877. The drawing, skillfully created by D. Maillard, was featured in Alfred Marche's story about this remarkable expedition. Intriguingly engraved in Le tour du monde magazine directed by Edouard Charton, Paris, this piece is part of the esteemed Selva Collection. It showcases an exquisite blend of civilization and African tradition. The image portrays a native African adorned with a traditional necklace and jewel, immersed in his custom while smoking a pipe. The intricate details highlight not only his beauty but also the manufacturing technology behind such cultural artifacts. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era where journeys were filled with discovery and exploration. The presence of a cog suggests that technological advancements were beginning to intertwine with age-old traditions. Leonard de Selva's photograph perfectly captures the essence of this engraving, preserving it for generations to come. This thought-provoking artwork reminds us of Africa's rich heritage and invites us to appreciate its customs and instruments that have stood the test of time.
