EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of daily life in 19th century Africa. The image showcases women from the banks of the Zambeze River, diligently defriching a hoe while introducing their children to agricultural work. The engraving was created by an unknown artist and was featured in "Le tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages" published under the direction of Edouard Charton in 1866. The scene depicted here is one of tradition and custom as these women pass down their knowledge and skills to the younger generation. With determination etched on their faces, they demonstrate the importance of agriculture for survival in their habitat. The simplicity yet profoundness of this image highlights the resilience and resourcefulness that characterized African communities during this time period. It serves as a reminder of how essential agriculture has always been for sustenance and development. This historical photograph is part of the Selva Collection, curated by Leonard de Selva. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness moments like these that shaped societies across Africa. As we admire this artwork, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also recognize the significance it holds within our collective history.
