EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Munbo-Jumbo, designating the woman guilty (Manding), 1811" takes us back to a time of mystery and cultural exploration. Created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, this piece is housed in the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. Intriguingly enigmatic, the image showcases a young African girl from the Manding tribe. Her expression carries both strength and vulnerability as she stands accused of witchcraft within her community. The engraving beautifully captures her intricate traditional attire and delicate features. "The Munbo-Jumbo" transports us to Mali, where ancient occult sciences were deeply rooted in society. This artwork serves as a window into a world that believed in supernatural forces and their influence on everyday life. Photographed by Leonard de Selva with great attention to detail, this print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Through this lens, we gain insight into the rich cultural tapestry of Africa and its diverse traditions. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking image, let us reflect on our own beliefs and prejudices while celebrating the resilience of individuals who have faced adversity throughout history.
