EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Senegalese Exhibit at the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908, held at White City in London. The image showcases a traditional Senegalese hut, transported from Africa and reassembled in the heart of the exhibition. Surrounding the hut are real live Senegalese villagers, dressed in their native attire, engaging with visitors and showcasing their unique culture. The Franco-British Exhibition was a significant event in the colonial era, designed to promote cultural exchange and economic cooperation between France and Britain. The Senegalese Exhibit was a highlight of the event, offering Europeans a glimpse into the daily life of people from the French West African colony of Senegal. The hut, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, stands proudly amidst the urban backdrop of White City. The contrast between the traditional Senegalese dwelling and the modern European cityscape underscores the vast cultural differences that existed during this period. The Senegalese families, wrapped in colorful fabrics and adorned with traditional jewelry, are seen interacting with visitors, offering a glimpse into their way of life. The children play and laugh, while the adults engage in conversation, demonstrating crafts, and sharing stories. This photograph offers a rare and poignant glimpse into the past, providing a window into a time when the world was becoming increasingly interconnected, and colonialism was shaping the global landscape. The Senegalese Exhibit at the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908 was a testament to the rich cultural diversity that exists across the globe, and a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the unique traditions and heritage of all peoples.
