EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant scene of the native market at Port Florence, Lake Victoria in Kenya, dating back to the early 20th century. The image showcases a bustling marketplace filled with African people engaged in various trade activities. The artist behind this remarkable piece is none other than the Keystone View Company, renowned for their exceptional stereoscopic photography. The monochrome composition transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the daily life and commerce that thrived on this East African continent over a century ago. In this snapshot, we see individuals seated comfortably amidst an array of goods and produce, creating an atmosphere brimming with energy and cultural exchange. It is worth noting that Port Florence has since been renamed Kisumu; however, its historical significance remains intact. This photograph serves as a testament to the rich heritage of Kenya's Nyanza region and offers a glimpse into its past glory. As part of The Print Collector collection curated by experts passionate about preserving history through visual art forms, this particular print stands out due to its meticulous detail and immersive quality.
