Clock Colonialism Courts Fort Kenya Kenyan Ladder Ladders Legal Mombasa Portuguese


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing the Law Courts and old Portuguese fort in Mombasa, Kenya. The image showcases the architectural beauty of these colonial structures against a backdrop of East African charm. The Law Courts stand tall with their grandeur, reflecting British influence during the era of colonialism. The intricate details on its facade are testament to the craftsmanship that went into constructing this legal institution. Adjacent to it is the old Portuguese fort, a relic from Mombasa's rich history as an important trading port along the Indian Ocean. The clock tower atop one of the buildings stands as a symbol of order and punctuality within these walls where justice was served. A flight of steps leading up to it adds an element of drama and significance to this imposing structure. Intriguingly, two ladders lean against different parts of the fort - perhaps left behind by workers or explorers who were once drawn to its historical allure. These ladders serve as silent witnesses to countless stories that unfolded within these walls over centuries. This evocative photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural magnificence and historical significance that these buildings hold for Kenya and its people.
