EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Magemma, chef des cavaliers du Sultan Sery ussa de Maradi, territoire du Niger" takes us on a journey to the heart of Africa. Captured by Alexander Yakovlev during the Citroen Centre Afrique expedition in 1927, this image showcases the rich cultural heritage and vibrant traditions of Niger. In this mesmerizing portrait, Magemma stands tall as the chief of Sultan Sery Ussa's cavalry. His regal presence is accentuated by his elaborate headdress and traditional African attire. The intricate details of his turban and headress reflect a deep sense of pride and honor within his role as a leader. Surrounded by majestic horses, Magemma exudes an aura of strength and authority. The parasol held above him adds an element of elegance to the composition while also providing respite from the scorching sun. Yakovlev's use of color lithography brings out the vividness and liveliness inherent in African culture. Every brushstroke seems to capture not only Magemma's physical appearance but also his spirit and character. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to the diversity and beauty found within different cultures around the world. It invites viewers to appreciate both the individuality and interconnectedness that exists across continents. Displayed in private collections worldwide, this piece continues to inspire admiration for its artistic excellence while shedding light on lesser-known aspects of African history.
