EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Femme M Gogo (Dodoma), from Dessins et Peintures d Afrique" transports us back to the heart of Africa in 1927. Taken during the Citroen Centre Afrique expedition, this image captures the essence and beauty of a woman belonging to the Gogo tribe. The woman's striking features are accentuated by her traditional ear cones and intricate ear piercings, which hold great cultural significance within her community. Her gaze is both enigmatic and powerful, reflecting a sense of resilience and pride that transcends time. Alexander Yakovlev, the talented photographer behind this masterpiece, skillfully brings out every detail with his color lithography technique. The vibrant hues add depth to the photograph, allowing us to appreciate not only the subject but also the rich diversity found within African cultures. As we delve into this historical piece, we are reminded of Louis Audouin-Dubreuil and Georges-Marie Haardt - two explorers who embarked on an extraordinary journey through Africa. Their mission was not only one of adventure but also aimed at documenting and preserving African art forms for future generations. Now part of a private collection owned by The Stapleton Collection, this artwork serves as a timeless reminder of Africa's artistic heritage. It invites us to celebrate its beauty while acknowledging its profound cultural significance.
