EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of L Ozoro Tishai, a pithy figure from the city of Adowa in Abyssinia (now Ethiopia). Featured in "The old and modern costume" by Ferrario, published in Milan in 1819-20, this image showcases the rich cultural heritage of Africa. The subject, a woman adorned with traditional African attire and accessories, exudes grace and elegance. The photograph transports us to a bygone era when vibrant colors and intricate patterns were an integral part of everyday life. The attention to detail is remarkable as every fold of fabric and bead on her jewelry tells a story. In her hands rests incense, symbolizing spirituality or perhaps even divination. L Ozoro Tishai's presence evokes curiosity about her role within the community - was she a respected elder or held some other significant position? Her regal demeanor suggests authority and wisdom beyond her years. Leonard de Selva's expert capture brings this historical moment to life once again. It serves as a reminder that beauty transcends time and place, celebrating diversity while honoring the traditions that shape our world. This stunning piece invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also prompts reflection on the richness of African culture throughout history.
