EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the historic Fort de Dagana in Senegal. Located 144 km from Saint-Louis, this impressive structure stands as a testament to the rich history of the region. The fort's grandeur is beautifully captured by an unknown artist in "Voyage et expeditions au Senegal" published in Tour du Monde during the second trimester of 1861. The intricate engraving brings out every detail of this architectural marvel, highlighting its significance within African history. Set against a stunning African landscape, this image transports us to a time when colonial powers were establishing their presence across the continent. The fort symbolizes both strength and control, serving as a strategic outpost for those who sought dominance over these lands. Preserved in a private collection and now made available through Leonard de Selva's lens, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only the beauty of Senegal but also its complex past. It serves as a reminder that even amidst change and progress, remnants of our shared history continue to shape our present. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of Africa's diverse cultural heritage and encouraged to explore further into its untold stories.
