EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-S-002230-0003" captures the essence of Sudanese culture and tradition during the late 19th century. The image showcases an ethnic portrait of two proud warriors from the Bicharin tribe, mounted on their majestic dromedaries and holding lances with a firm grip. The warriors exude strength and resilience as they navigate the vast desert landscape. Amidst this striking scene, a small dog can be glimpsed in the background, adding an unexpected touch of companionship to this otherwise fierce display of military life. The presence of this loyal canine serves as a reminder that even in times of war or conflict, humanity finds solace in our connection with animals. The photograph was taken between 1870 and 1890 by Zangaki, an esteemed photographer known for his documentation of African cultures. Through his lens, he expertly captures not only the physical attributes but also the cultural significance embodied by these warriors. This image is more than just a snapshot; it offers valuable insights into anthropology, ethnography, and folklore surrounding black Africans and negroid populations at that time. It provides viewers with a glimpse into Sudan's rich history while shedding light on its diverse population and nationalities. As we admire this remarkable piece from Alinari's collection, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its ability to transport us back in time – allowing us to witness firsthand the bravery and pride exhibited by these Sudanese warriors.
