EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to the year 1936 in Malakal, Sudan. The image showcases a group of Shiluks, an indigenous tribe known for their resilience and rich cultural heritage. Standing proudly amidst their homeland, they are framed against the backdrop of a vintage plane. The juxtaposition between tradition and modernity is strikingly evident in this photograph. As the Shiluks maintain their age-old customs and way of life, the presence of an aircraft symbolizes progress and change encroaching upon their serene existence. It serves as a reminder that even in remote corners of the world, globalization leaves its mark. The photographer skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also conveys a sense of depth through his lens. The composition draws our attention to every detail - from the intricate patterns on traditional garments to weathered faces reflecting years of wisdom. This print offers us a glimpse into history; it tells stories untold by textbooks or documentaries. It invites us to contemplate how cultures evolve over time while preserving their essence against external influences. As we admire this remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection, let us celebrate diversity and honor those who have managed to retain their identity amidst changing times.
