EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, taken in 1936, we see a bustling scene on the main square of a village in Djibouti, a small country located in the Horn of Africa. The village square is the heart of community life, and today it serves as a gathering place for the local residents as they go about their daily routines. At the center of the square stands a grand fountain, a vital source of water for the villagers. The women and men, dressed in traditional clothing, are seen filling their jars from the fountain, their faces reflecting a sense of purpose and determination. The men, some wearing turbans and others with their heads uncovered, stand nearby, engaged in conversation or observing the women as they work. The houses that surround the square are simple and made of mud bricks, with thatched roofs and open windows. The village scene is one of tranquility and hard work, as the people of Djibouti go about their daily tasks, relying on the communal fountain as a source of life-giving water. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1930s and the daily life of a typical African village. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of community and the simple pleasures of life, as well as the enduring strength and resilience of the human spirit. The photograph, taken in 1936, captures a moment in time that has long since passed, but the memories and traditions it represents continue to live on in the hearts and minds of the people of Djibouti and beyond. This image is a testament to the power of photography to capture and preserve the essence of a moment in history.
