EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the early 1920s in Sierra Leone, West Africa, as native fishermen go about their daily routine near a tranquil river. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush, green trees and a quaint, arched bridge, adding to the serene and picturesque atmosphere. The shallow waters of the river reflect the clear blue sky above, and the fishermen can be seen skillfully casting their nets into the water, their focus intently on the task at hand. The native people of Sierra Leone have a rich history of fishing, with the country's abundant water resources providing a vital source of food and livelihood for many communities. In this photograph, we see the simplicity and primitivity of their fishing methods, a stark contrast to the modern techniques used today. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the connection between people and nature was more profound. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the beauty and diversity of African culture, and the resilience and resourcefulness of its people. It also highlights the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world, and the role it plays in sustaining both human life and our collective memory.
